As you have pain in the back radiating to leg you have compression on nerves by vertebra when nerves come out of intervertebral spaces that is termed as lumbago with sciatica.If a patient with this type of complaints i will advise him Tab Diclofenac pottassium peracetamol MR, cap B Complex and cap Omeprazole 20 three times a day. Hard bed rest.Also have an Xray of LumboSacral region done.
