Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to sciatica pain.
I suggest using painkillers such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain.
Gentle stretching exercises may also be helpful
If the symptoms continue, you should consult a neurologist and get evaluated.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
