Hi,
Your symptoms are due to lumbar disc fusion problem. You can attach your reports so that I can check it. Anti-inflammatory medication and physiotherapy can be suggested for you.
Avoid movement that aggravates pain. If no improvement than surgical management might be needed. I suggest you consult a nearby spinal surgeon for a physical examination and get treated accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
