my leg is messed up misc please help (sciatica I think)

I worked a trade job after being in bed too much gaming and my body couldn't handle the stress and now I have a sciatica pinch in my inner booty cheek and it started to mess up my whole leg to my while toe

I thought maybe I broke my calf its so tight.

I had taken a lot of ibuprofen and squatted like 90lbs to try to work through the issue but it didn't work and my whole left leg is messed up.

I can't stip taking ibuprofen.

I tried to ice the leg but switched to icing my back.

tried resting a lot, still the same.

tried playing basketball. feels ok the night of and the next day due to blood flow but then hurts again.

im so scared right now. my Achilles heel and calf is numb.

can barely walk with a huge limp.

I had something similar happen 7 years ago and lasted for 1 year till I did deadlifting to fix it

this time the effects seem worse and my healing isn't as quick.

pls help

Heat lower back, piriformis stretch, double knee to chest stretch, hamstring stretch, quad stretch, hip flexor stretch, calf stretch. Repeat

Find yourself a good chiropractor if that doesn’t work. Key word: good

googling that looks legit

never heard that term only L1-4 injury and sciatica but that seems part of it too.

how's your icing regiment

I feel the ultimate goal is to get a deadlift programming going through the pain to just reinforce power in that whole area for a permanent transformative fix.

been laying down barely active just gaming for months and my whole lower body is out of shape and far from optimal

Heat to relax/loosen up the back muscles. Cold is for reducing inflammation/swelling and you don’t have that.

Makes sense.

Does yoga and stuff help?

Like is stretching useful or undue pressure on the “pinch”

If that makes sense...
