Thanks for an excellent description of your condition. Minor disc bulges are not a problem in the elderly, but young people like u must be careful of their posture, especially while working for long hours on the computer or sleeping with too many pillows. If you sit absolutely straight on a chair and use thin pillows while sleeping combined with isometric muscle strengthening exercises for the neck and lower back, your condition will improve in 2-3 months time. If not then u have to see ur nearest neurosurgeon. The correct timing and combination of exercises along with correct posture is the key to ur problem. Pain can recur again and can be serious if one of the discs pops out into the spinal canal.
