Sciatica or priformis?

I have been having a lot of pain in my back and in im right leg the pain starts from the back and goes down to my calf. I went to an allopathic doctor he said that its sciatica and thus gave me pain killers which i didnt take. I read about it here and since the last two days have started taking colocynthis 200 calcarea flour 6x. I started to feel a lot better after it but the pain along the nerve reduces but doesnt go away. Today i felt my calf and feet starting to go numb and also started cramping thus i have also started taking Gnaphailium 30 and magnasea phos 6x. Is there any change of medicine required?
The pain gets better when i apply heat to it.
It hurts in my lower back when i stand thus im slouched forward for a while and when it becomes bearable i straighten my back(the pain reduces but doesnt go away)
The pain is electric like
If i sit in a hard place or floor my back starts to ache
About a week back my right buttocks muscles were spasming a lot thats why im suddenely not so sure if its sciatica or not or if im taking the right medicine
The pain goes away 95-99% when im sitting cross legged on a soft surface
