Lumbar strain : Was there an injury? Even if not, it sounds like a lumbar strain, with muscle spasms. Try some ibuprofen, and Tylenol over-the-counter, rest, ice and very gentle stretching. It is very common. If you also have pain radiating to your legs, numbness, or weakness in your legs or problems with bowel and bladder function then you should go to the ER. If not, likely to improve in a few days.
