General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

It may be due to sciatica.

It indicates nerve compression.

For further assessment you may require MRI back after spine surgeon consultation.

For that you can take tablet Pregabalin and multivitamin after consultation.

You may require surgical intervention after surgeon consultation

Hope I have answered your query..
Let me know if I can assist you further.
