Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you. As your GP told it is sciatica I agree with him. As these symptoms of pain below the knee in the lateral side of the leg is due to the pinched nerve in the lumbar spine and needs a thorough clinical examination. This pain can be reduced by making the core stability exercises and later on lower limb strengthening exercises. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
