Pain is start at sometimes from my groin area than comes to inner thigh and sometime pain is start from my hip area to side of thigh and sometime pain is happen in my front of thigh and pain is only above the knee not goes below knee.

Hello there....., Sciatica is pain in the buttock and leg, caused by pressure on nerves in the lower back. Sciatica can be caused by slipped discs, pinched nerves or some forms of arthritis.....
rest, but not prolonged bedrest...counter pain-relieving medication...apply ice packs...maintain proper posture....rest the back by not bending, flexing or lifting heavy weights....take warm baths.... gentle exercises to strengthen and support the lower back....Consult Orthopedician....
