Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist,  's  Response
As per my my view I strongly suggest it is related to sciatica or there is problem with your lumbar spine. It can be any thing related to your lumbar disc. I suggest to do mri for your lumbar spine. Get it checked by ortho and physio and follow a proper treatment program with medication and physio therapy. Because only taking some painkiller on your own will not help you much and it may become more also.
On top of this you can try with hot and cold pack application at your hip and back level where it is paining to reduce some inflammation, increase circulation, and soothing effect on soft tissue.
