Hello ma'am,
To answer your question, yes u need to consult a physiotherapist.
You can either visit a nearby clinic or a hospital. If facility not available, a physio can do teleconsultation for you.
Next Steps
Do not perform exercises with nurse, or by watching youtube videos.
physiotherapy rehabilitation varies from person to person and condition to condition.
Do not experiment and worsen your situation.
Thank you

U need to consult physiotherapist immediately and take treatment to relieve the pain and other symptoms because physiotherapy is only cure in most of slip disc cases...
