Hello,
Listening to your symptoms it seems like you are suffering from a herniated disc.
Doing an x-ray or better an MRI can help you determine the diagnosis. Meanwhile, you can continue to have anti-inflammatory drugs and I can suggest you take co-codamol for pain. Put hot and cold compresses to the spine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
