Buttock pain causing the left leg pain

2017-12-13 10:53:14
I have leg pain that starts from the left buttock and radiates down to my ankle. As we speak my upper buttock is swollen and feels like a lump and that is where the pain emanates from. The pain is more excruciating at night and moderate during the day. I have been managing the pain with ibuprofen Please advise what could be wrong with me and what is the solution?
