Have Pain In The Back And Buttock. Took Some Medication. What Can The Cause And The Remedy For This?

I am a 44yr old woman who has never had anything seriously wrong until 3months ago. I have always worked in an office so sitting is what I am used to. However, I started a new job in Feb and about a month later I began to have buttock & lower back pains everyday. I have taken 5 over the counter pain medicines and I now use 2 tubes of Icy Hot cream each week. I hurt 24hrs a day. I can't sleep the best because I am in constant pain. My boss smelled the Icy Hot and went and bought me a new chair which didn't help any. I have tried using pillows to sit on at work but nothing helps. I lay on a heating pad when I get off work. I am fixing to get insurance so it will be a couple months before it will pay for any tests so what do you recommend I do?
