Hi,
Back pain may be due to back muscle spasm or lumbar spondylosis or radiculopathy or right renal caliculi or right ureteric calculi, etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Get it done X-ray lumbar spine, urine examination and ultrasound abdomen.
Take rest, use cold and warm compression. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
