Hello,

There might be sciatic nerve compression which is causing you the pain. You might have any trivial trauma or bad posture which is causing you the shooting pain across the course of the nerve.

In order to treat such pain, you need to take vitamin B12 supplements like Neurobion forte medicine for a month and you can even take painkillers like tramadol, pethidine for 3 to 5 days if the pain is intolerable.

If still pain is not getting subsided, then we need to think of other causes after a physical examination.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
