Sciatica: The radiation of pain from the lower back down the buttock and leg is possibly from a pinched nerve in the spine. If it's been bothering you for several months then it's time to see an orthopedist for a proper diagnosis and probably mri.

Given Your Pain: I would suggest seeing a pain/spine specialist to evaluate you further to evaluate what level and what can be done to treat you. There are interventional treatments besides medications and surgeries that might reduce or eliminate the pain altogether.
