Hello,
As the pain which is radiating in nature always guide towards the lumbar radiculopathy. A scan is advised.
Also, hot water fermentation to the lower back, core stability exercise, spinal muscles strengthening exercises, hip muscle strengthening exercises, static quadriceps, static hamstring, ankle toe movements, and straight leg raise exercises will help the muscle to become stronger and even stabilize the spinal column.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
