MRI results are in, I have a bulging disk that is impinging on a nerve. what options?

Doctor said bulging out 4-5 mm which isn't much, but enough to cause pain and make my foot a little numb. I am on meds to reduce the pain, inflammation and muscle relaxer. Next is orthopedic consultation. I don't want surgery, what options can work-chiropractor, acupuncture, or deep physical therapy? I can't live with the pain, it is too much and too limiting to every day activities.
