Hi i am Dr Ahmed Aly
thanks for using healthcaremagic site ,
I had gone through your question and understand your concerns ..


In my opinion it could be a kind of sciatica due to nerve compression thus causing this kind of radiating neuropathic pain .
of course lack of exercise , bad sleeping or sitting postures , heavy lifting , vigorous movements , can cause that kind of painbut dont worry sometimes it subsides simultaneously .
You may begin with spinal straightening exercise , physiotherapy , hot massages with topical gels and even yoga helps . use painkillers like advil tab when needed , B12 vitamin supplementation ,muscle relaxants will be effective for now .
If pain persists i may recommend further imaging by MRI and a neurosurgeon point of view for proper evaluation and management .
