Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query

I'm Dr Sudhir Kumar

I have gone through your query and understand your concern. You may be having disc prolapse. It can be confirmed by MRI of lumbar spine.Treatment of it is rest and analgesic ( you are already taking analgesic Etoshine MR) . Position of rest is lateral position with both hip and knee flexed. Mecobalmine is helpful in reducing neuralgic pains.So it is advisable to get MRI.

You can discuss with your doctor about it.

Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then I will be happy to help you.

Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
