Mild back pain for 1-2 days, then 2wks later both hamstrings and calves had less tone, though other muscles are the same is this due to herniated disc?

Doubtful: It does not sound like this should be due to a ruptured disc. I am not sure what you mean by less tone, however. A ruptured disc usually causes severe leg pain or weakness in one or both of your legs. Seek medical attention if you are concerned.
