First line of treatment is medications with physiotherapy.

Start with tab Gabapin NT once daily at night. This medication can cause slight drowsiness.

Start with back physiotherapy, back exercises. Hot and cold compression. 

In case there is no relief or numbness in your legs increases then surgical option should be considered.
