Chiropractic Mobilization will help.
Do the cat/cow stretch. Get on all fours, with your arms straight and your hands directly under your shoulders; your knees hip-width apart.

You really need thorough evaluation asap. Color chance, temperature changes, posture, many of these things need to be evaluated physically.
See a orthopedic surgeon or if you have a family doctor see him first.

Hello sir,
If it’s more weakeness in left leg than Right leg it should be due to some nerve compression. You should see a Physician first as you have lost 5 kgs in a month and a Physiotherapist for nerve and muscles evaluation. If required Physician will reffer to any another speciality.
Hope this will help.
Thank you.
