Hi,
The pain in the lower back you have might be related to arthritis. I suggest to do X-ray of the back and run blood analysis for arthritis to determine your current health problems and to prescribe specific treatment.
Meanwhile, I advise to:
- take pain-killers (ibuprofen, acetaminophen) to reduce the pain
- apply local analgesic cream
- apply warm clothing to the affected area (especially before going to sleep)
- do light exercises when you wake up in the morning.
