Suggest Remedy For Pain In Lower Buttock

I do gymnastics, and I did a split, I do them often, but when I did this one I felt a pull and heard a couple cracks. There is pain in by lower right buttock and a tingling sensation from my thigh to the bottom of my foot. Any movement hurts on a scale from 1-10, I say about a 7... What is this? And what are the steps I need to do to heal?

Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you are having sciatica.It can be overstrained sciatic nerve or can be as a result of disc prolapse. Bed rest is its treatment.You have not mentioned your age to predict the cause. Mecobalamine will be useful in relieving the tingling sensations . You can take analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered.
