Bulging disc in lower back now making legs tingly/numb but not affecting walking & no pain in legs. also jaw sore now. see a doc again?

Neuropathy: Lower back disc compressing the nerves will cause legs to become numb with tingles. That is neuropathy. I would see the doctor perhaps you need an MRI to assess the severity.
