Back eval: The causes are multiple and you have given virtually no history This could be from work, exercise or some type of martial arts workout. It is unclear but if related only to the back it should pass with some time. Heat and/or ice will occasinoally some relief but not if severe. See the doc to get recommendation of the cause and best treatment.
