		 Having just had lower back issues for the last 3 weeks..... 
 
Heating pad did wonders for me at home on the couch.  I've also walked around smelling of camphor for all the Icy Hot I slathered on my back.  Also, 4 Advil 3 times a day (after eating to give your stomach a break) worked for me. 
 
Others have advised that I alternate with 20 minutes ice, then 20 minutes off, which I did at the office and that helped a lot. 
 
Sorry you are hurting.  I know how you feel, this was my first brush with something physical that did not get over itself in a matter of days.
