The pain you feel on your left leg where it joints your body (pelvis) all the way down the front of the leg is suggestive of sciatic pain. Neurologist to consult further together with running X-ray of the spinal cord (lumbar and sacral area) together with pelvis).
For the moment, take oral analgesic together with applying analgesic cream locally.
Wish fast recovery.
