See your physician: You may have strained your back muscles. You could have more serious problems. You need to see your physician for an assessment and medicine ) sometimes also physical therapy) to relieve your symptoms. You also need to make sure that, when lifting heavy objects, you bend and use your legs so as to minimize the strain on your back
