Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
It can be a nerve compression due to acute slip disc. I would suggest you to get MRI of the spine to confirm the diagnosis. I would also suggest you that you should not lift heavy weight, or do any forward bending. You need to take rest and take Pregabalin and Methylcobal tablet for pain relief.
