Hello
Thank you for using healthcaremagic
I read your question and understood your concern
This is muscle spasms of paravertebral muscles as a reaction of your organisms to protect your spine from moving too much.
The initial treatment is with muscle relaxant medication and nonsteroidal antiinflamatory drugs from mouth and locally for few weeks.
Then if your pain persists you should get an MRI of the spine
I wish you quick recovery
