You need to consult spine specialist. If the canal diameter at disc bulge level is less than 10 mm the according to your severity of symptoms you may need surgery i.e. Discectomy & decompression. But if it is >10 mm physiotherapy, exercises & precautions may give you relief from pain.

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.
