As per your symptom and history there is possibility of acute muscle spasm. Due to compression of nerve root there is pain associated with it.
For these symptoms muscle relaxant with analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started consulting your treating doctor. Till time take rest and continue analgesic available over the counter take rest, and hot fomentation. Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief. You may need to do MRI spine if symptoms persist. I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.
