Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
In my opinion you have sacroiliitis of (R) Side , you should take pain killers, Muscle relaxants and spinal extension exercises( to be taught by a physiotherapist). Avoid heavy weight lifting. For diagnosis first of all get x ray of lower spine. MRI may be required later.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
