Brief Answer:
User oral painkillers...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Since you did not report any other symptoms with this back ache, I would safely assume this sudden onset back ache is due to mechanical or muscular reasons. It should slowly improve with rest and proper analgesics. Along with topical analgesics spray, I will suggest that we use oral pain killer and muscle relaxants. Instead of ibuprofen I would start etoshine MR (etoricoxib and thiocolchioside) tablets twice daily. This etoshine MR is a prescription drug.
If the pain worsens or persist beyond 3-4 days despite adequate rest and medication, I will urge you to visit a doctor for careful back examination and investigation.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarifications.
Regards
