Doing generalised exercises could help your back to some extend.
You would need a specific assessment and treatment and this would only be done with a physio consult.
As mentioned general low back pain exercise would help to around 60 to 70 percent mostly.

Hi,
Radiculopathy is involvement of the nerves coming out of your spine which also involves sensory loss and muscle weakness...
Radiculitis on the other hand is nerve related symptoms without any sensory loss and muscle weakness..
Which one do you have??
Also there's no particular exercise that you can pin point as a cure...
Consult the physio of your choice to undergo guided rehab so that proper monitoring of symptoms is done and exercises are prescribed which help you most
