Possibly: Spinal stenosis can cause your symptoms especially if you also have a bulging disc at that level. Epidural steroid injections and/or treatment with some medications may improve your pain. I would suggest consulting a pain management physician.

Can be: You may benefit from a epidural steroid injection. If it persists, surgery is an option. Check out spine-health.Com.
