Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I have gone through your query. It can be due to nerve compression syndrome caused by intervertebral disc prolapse.
If not improving by physiotherapy and medicines, then surgical decompression will be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
