There was a point in my life where that clutch had to go....it is automatics for me now forever.
You could try an ice pack on your lower left lumbar after driving and see if that takes down some of the strain.
There is also a nice lotion, with magnesium in it which rubbed into your lower back and back of the thigh may help.
Morton Epsom Lotion:

Apply at night before bed each day and you may happily find some relief. Many of us here use this with success.
Available at some local WalMarts and Walgreen's, but not at many other outlets yet.
Use sparingly, as it works very well and huge amounts are not necessary. A quarter's dollop on your back and the thigh is enough.
This easy and inexpensive and works!
