In my opinion you need to go for physiotherapy sessions followed by few blood tests like calciumvitamin d and vitamin b 12...if you are having deranged values you need to take supplement medications... In physiotherapy you need to go for IFT / hot pack / US / Laser..followed by exs after ur pain subsides...take care get well soon
Next Steps
Visit a good physiotherapist...
You can start with
Tab. Hifenac d twice a day
Tab. Nucoxia mr once a day at noon
Tab pan 40 empty stomach
Health Tips
Do not leave physio treatment in b/ w
Do not check your pain
Avoid forward bending

Just a symptom of leg pain may be due to many reasons...and only a report of l45 disc bulge doeant suffice to conclude whether its the cause of ur pain... havr u ruled out all other causes of leg pain.. have u got checked to see if u have any nerve related symptoms and signs.. have u tried simple pain management. Ur vitamin d levels... ur sacroilliac joints... have u chekced above... if not.......
Meet ur spine specialist...
Meanwhile... ice packs / hot fomentation.. and tab panadol ..i u not allergic to it might help
