Hi, Thanks for using HCM
In my opinion it might be early signs of sciatica. You should not take them lightly. For immediate relief have some pain killer along with a muscle relaxant and have proper bed rest for 2 weeks. Do not lie down on soft mattress use hard one instead, do not sit for longer durations and do not travel long distance for 2 weeks . You can also apply some good anti inflammatory pain killer gel on your back. If the pain increases do some hot fermentation locally and make a routine of doing some back strengthening exercise daily . After 2 weeks start with some back strengthening exercise. It will help you build your back muscle and you will be able to continue with your daily work with no pain but do not over look at the symptoms right now. As it is still early days for you and you can be fine and back in action with these small things.
Good luck

Hello,
I had gone through the case and found that it might be sciatica pain. So do not ignore, go for X-ray of lumbo sacral region to know the other cause like lumbar spondylitis.
Meanwhile take mild pain killer and physiotherapy of lumbar region and do exercise for sciatica pain.
Hope my answer will be effective for you.
Thanks
