Start taking ice compression 2-3 times a day , get x-ray lumbar spine done and consult an orthopaedic, if you have tingling and numbness in the leg, it could be due to nerve compression but nothing can be said for sure till the proper examination is done .
Next Steps
Avoid lifting heavy weight, bending forward and exercising for few days, rest and take physiotherapy treatment .
