most probably it is due to a slipped lumbar disc causing nerve compression.
You need a immediate MRI.
start with physiotherapy.

HI
SCIATICA OR LUMBAR DISC PROLAPSE ARE THE PROBABLE DIAGNOSIS.
GET XRAY AND MRI OF LUMBAR SPINE DONE. CONSULT A ORTHOPEDIST.
USE LUMBAR BELT,TAKE METHYCOBALAMIN AND PREGABALIN TABLETS.
hello there
the back nerve and muscle may have been unduely stretched and inflammed.
take rest,use back belt.
if this isnt helping,you need an mri of the back region.
