Go see a dcotr, that's the only good avice I can give you. I'm going through the same thing. X-ray revealed no issues, however MRI found a herniated disk :(

if you did something to stress it, you may have slipped a disk.

the biggest problem with back muscles is when you try to pick something up, your muscles get ready for the weight your brain is expecting. if one side of the muscles tenses like its going to weigh 100lbs and the other side like its going to weigh 5lbs, it can pull your back out of place and rupture/slip disks. go to a doctor before you make it worse.
