What Causes Severe Pain And Stiffness In Lower Back?

Hi , I have severe lower back pain at the bottom of my spine. The pain will shift from my right side to my left. Stretching does not help much. If I stand for long periods of time, that pain will continue. I can run, and climb stairs all day, very uncomfortable. Does not feel structural. Lower back is tight. Heat does not help.
