Brief Answer:
Regular stretching and exercise of back muscle

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for writing to us.
Most common reason for back pain due to back muscle spasm due to muscle fatigue. How frequently do you get the episodes? if the problem is of longer duration such as months to year then disc related issue need to be ruled out.
Regular back muscle stretching and exercise will help to stay away from the pain. Swimming may be a good option. If possible please upload your xrays. Thanks.
