Hello
In your case backache may be due to many reasons like musculoskeletal reasons like sprain etc.Fracture is unlikely according to your history.
However, X-ray L/S spine (AP/Lateral view)can be done to exclude fracture.
After excluding fracture you may need to take analgesics and muscle relaxants.
You should take complete bed rest for three-four days.Hot fomentation can also be done.
Get well soon.
