You should strengthen your core muscles. Avoid doing abs crunch exercises. Focus on back strengthening and stretching exercises with proper guidance.
If the pain persist or aggrevates you should consult a physiotherapist or orthopaedist in person for complete assessment and treatment.

Visit nearby physiotherapy clinic and tske IFT for 4 days, and later you can start with stretching and strengthening exercises.
Apply hot pack, maintain proper sitting posture and if sitting of more than 30mins take a walk for a minute and then sit again, continous sitting for prolonge time increase pain in lower back.
