Acute lumbar pain is very common.
Give it some time without strenuous exercise, and gradually, go back to a normal level of activity.
Exercise will help prevent it once this acute attack is over.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Anders Mark Christensen,
