Hi
I read your query and understand your consern
I am sorry for the symptoms you are suffering
It seems you are suffering from lumbar discopathy, it is bothering and provoke pain but at least isn't dangerous so you don't have to worry too much
In my opinion you should schedule a lumbar CT scan or even better a lumbar MR which wil confirm my doubt and show the gravity of herniation
Meantime you should wear a lumbar fortress and continue pain killers
Hope I have been of help
Best regards
