Take an X-ray of LS and check if there is any disc bulge or nerve compression. Visit nearest physiotherapy center ask to apply IFT+US.
Take this for a week, the pain will reduce, untill then avoid lifting heavy objects, wear LS belt. take rest as much as possible.
At home can apply hot water fermentation for quick relaxing of muscles.
