Spine Pain Options: This chronic pain in the distribution as you suggested is the result of an irritated nerve or facet joints or other injury typically in the lumbar spine (low back) which are caused by herniated disks, spinal stenosis or degenerative disc disease, etc requiring further evaluation by a spine specialist and may be candidate for facet injections/radiofrequency ablation and epidural steroid injection.

See Your Doctor!: If pain is "severe" and not responding to anti-inflammatories you need a workup to rule out organ causes of pain such as kideney, colon etc. If the pain is just confined to the back likely just muscular. Muscular pain and spasm can be very painful. If this has been going on for a week or two or more see your doctor! perhaps a MRI will be ordered.
