Neurologist 's  Response
You need to consult Neurologist Immediately. There may be possibility of any further nerve roots or canal stenosis acutely by the protruded intervertebral disc. Possibly your doctor will perform NCV/EMG and MRI spine to look for the cause.
Another possibilty can also be a minor stroke which involved left thalamus which can produce only sensory symptoms on right side of body
