Why Do I Suddenly Have Tightness Across My Back?

seems to be mechanical back pain
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
From description it seems to be mechanical back pain, more related to posture while sleeping.
For pain and spasm to go you have to do back exercises to relive the spasm associated with this. Doing hot fomentation and applying muscle relaxant gel will also be helpful in relieving the spasm.
Correct your posture while sitting. Take frequent breaks during your work.
Lie on hard bed. Avoid forward bending and lifting heavy weight.
You can take anti inflammatory drug like ibuprofen to relieve pain.
