I really appreciate your concern, the nature of pain that is described here could be sciatica but it may not cause any swelling so swelling could be due to some arthritis changes, for over all pain condition and swelling you can use "Tab Diclofenac 50 mg" once in day and get done MRI study hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
