Dear friend
Do visit an orthopaedician to rule out the source of pain before trying anything.

There maybe many reasons for your pain from a simple muscle spasm to as much worse as a slip disc. However you need to be examined for this only then you can start with some treatment. It's very simple to understand if the problem is not diagnosed properly it can't be treated properly.
