Muscular: Self or profess massage, chiropractor, yoga, heat, stretching all are needed. My favorite in my practice is acupuncture and myofascial tissue release. Be careful some docs will place the blame in you disc and advise surgery or epidurals .... No!

Sciatica/: Ridiculopathy. You can try gentle stretching. Oral antiinflammatories, hot compresses or alternatively ice to the origin of pain. If problem persists see the doctor who may recommend physical therapy.

Nerve or muscle?: Possible short leg may cause that type of pain. Could be a pinched nerve in the low back. Could be a band of tissue on the outside of your hip rubbing over a bone. Could be, could be?. Best advice is to see an orthopaedic doctor or podiatrist for a better hands on exam before treatment is rendered without more info.
