Hello,
Most probably it is due to conditions like sciatica.
We have to rule out other causes like pulled harm strings also.
As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persists better to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
