Hi,
from history it seems that there might be heavy back muscle strain while playing table tennis leading to spasm of back muscle giving this problem.
Take analgesic with muscle relaxant like Dan-MR twice a day for 3 days.
Apply analgesic, muscle relaxant cream over the part.
Apply hot fomentation.
Take rest for 2-3 days.
Ok and take care.
