Dear friend ,I have realized that you have severe muscle spasm in the back area.this muscles are responsible for holdibg our vertebral column.so,overstretching or bending has caused this muscles fatigue to the point that they have started causing pain.also there is a chance that the vertebral disc that lies in between two vertebral bone have slipped causing the nerves which lies there getting affected by the vertebral pressure.in both circumstances what you urgently need is complete bed rest.also you can pain killer to alleviate pain.then after a few days ,you should start home regimen back strengthening exercise as physiotherapy.also dont try weight lift in this conditionhope you will be free of pain and can walk freely in this protocol.thank you..
