How To Heal Disc Bulge (L4)?

Hi, I have been diagonized with disc bulge (L4) and there is pain in my lower back when I sit and not able to bend.
I've gone through some physiotherapy and using the LS belt and doing exercises. What else can I do to heal the disc bulge? Can any additional supplements can help me?
