  Best to see a doctor and he may recommend an MRI. I had a lower back issue that turned out to be a degenerative disk, L-5 S-1 which was 40% removed and that was fine for about a year and then my second surgery remove the scare tissue. Now i am all better and have no issues with pain. I recommend the surgery.

  If this has been going on for three weeks, then yes, you need to have it checked out. They will most likely do an MRI, as it will allow a better "look" as to what may be going on in there, as opposed to a regular x-ray. Good Luck! I do hope it is not anything serious and you feel better very soon!

  Sounds like strain to me – the only solution is to take anti inflammatory pills and rest, rest and then rest some more. Don’t lift or carry anything heavy and don’t go to the gym. Just find a nice comfortable position and stay put. You can take Voltaren tablets and there’s the gel as well. There’s Olfen plus Gel. Back strain is a common problem but nip it in the bud. If you don;t rest up you;ll be lumped with it for the rest of your life.

  You probably just strained your back. It wouldn’t hurt to go and get an X-ray, but I think if you don’t do any heavy lifting for a while your back should be fine
