Paracetamol is merely a pain killer. You may want to add a non steroidal anti inflammatory drug. This blocks the chemical transmitters released from e disc that open the pain pathways to the brain. Best to check with your doctor this is ok. You need to take it regularly to block the transmitters - if you only take it occasionally it is no better than the paracetamol. Stopif you get indigestion
A herniated disc normally dries out and shrivels so it will resolve in time. However injections of local anaesthetic can produce dramatic relief and keep you both mobile and flying. You need to see a spinal surgeon to discuss this
At the same consultation you can discuss surgical options but in view of my previous comments you may wish to avoid this. However everyone is unique so my advice would be to get that consultation
Good luck
