Dear Sir/Madam
I have gone through your query and read your symptoms.
In my opinion, the main fear is such activity is of muscular pull and prolapse disc, muscular pain is localized and on movement, while disc pain is radiating to the leg or may be localized to the back only, the first thing you need to do is
1 take analgesics like ibuprofen 400mg three times a day for 3 days.
2 take rest and see if your symptoms improve, if they do we are on the right track, and if they do not than we need to get investigated for the problem.
I hope that answers your query. If you want any more clarification, contact me back.
Thanks

I went through your query, and I feel, you are right you have probably pulled a muscle, give rest to it and take analgesic with muscle relaxant medication after consultation with your doctor, and this will resolve in a few days time
I hope my advice would have been useful, in decision making regarding your treatment, still if you have any clarifications or doubts feel free to contact back.
