It sounds like a pinched sciatica nerve that's being aggravated by menstrual cramps. Have you ever been to a chiropracter? Getting adjusted might help with it.

It is possible that you have sciatia, a back problem that causes the sciaic nerve that runs from the but to the foot. Even though this hurts only with your period, the additional "bloating and swelling" from your period may increase the likely hood of this. You need to see your Dr. to make sure.
