Hi there
Thanks for the query
This could be due to strain of the muscles or particle slip disc.
Avoid bending forward or lifting heavy objects. Apply warm packs. Do straight leg raising exercises while lying on bed. Take Ibuprofen 400mg twice a day for 5 days after meals. If still no response then MRI of the lumbar spine may be needed.
I hope I have answered your query.
I will be available to answer your follow up queries.
