Brief Answer:
You may be having disc prolapse.

Detailed Answer:

Hi
Thanks for your query

I'm Dr Sudhir Kumar

I have gone through your query and understand your concern. Your symptoms suggest disc prolapse. It can be confirmed by MRI of lumbar spine. Its treatment is rest in the lateral position with both hip and knee slightly flexed and analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Mecobalamine is helpful in reducing radiation.

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.
