Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that you have more pressure on the sciatic nerve and an infection, in the surrounding tissues.
I advise you to consult a neurologist for diagnosis and treatment. you may need to have a M.R.I, for confirmation.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms. neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days, and then periodically. Ofloxacin, diclphenac sodium, and paracetamol for 10 days.
Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato, egg, chicken, and sea foods.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods to have a good health.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
