Trapped Nerve

Hi All
I need some advice.
Over the last three weeks I have been suffering from pain in my lower back on the left hand side. It runs all the way down my left leg, and into my left foot.

I think that it may be a trapped nerve, in either my knee or the small of my back. Both are swollen.

I am finding it uncomfortable to sit still at the moment, especially as some of our aircraft have got poor seats. It isn’t really affecting my flying.
However I am concerned that if I go the doctors I could be grounded. And in this climate of fear that companies are giving, I am worried about my job.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
