There could be other causes of your leg pain, either a muscle sprain or ligament pull. The disc bulge is not the cause. Take a few days rest, avoid sitting,  some anelgesics. You can try some Physiotherapy under supervision of a Physiotherapist. If pain still persists then consult a Neurospine specialist.
