It sounds like you might have a disc bulge or herniated disc. There’s no way to know for sure without evaluating you. The best thing to do is see a pain management doctor for possible physical therapy, imaging and further investigation on what’s going on. If you are in a lot of pain, you might be a candidate for an epidural injection, which is a very simple procedure that can help significantly!
Contact your primary or doctor and have your back looked at with an MRI. Have you had any back injuries in the recent past? Please have your back looked at urgently.

Recommend evaluation by physician if there has been no improvement.
