Hello,

I had gone through the case and found that this might be slip disc not only muscle spasm.

So immediate go for X-ray to find the exact cause. Meanwhile do not bend forward and apply local muscle relaxant ointment and take hot water bagon the back.

Hope my answer will be effective for you.

Thanks
