. Apply Hot Fomentation twice daily. Avoid bending in front. Postural Correction- Sit Tall, Walk Tall. Extension Exercises x 15 times x twice daily - lying on tummy, take left arm up for 3 seconds, then bring it down, right arm up for 3 seconds, bring down. Bring right leg up, hold for 3 seconds, bring it down. Then right leg up and hold for 3 seconds and bring it down. Repeat twice a day- 10 times

As this scenario happened with you while playing or completion of play so this shows that due to some muscular strain or ligament sprain you have got an injury,so for that you need a proper assessment to rule out between the two and consultation by an experienced physiotherapist. For this you can consult us online.

Back pain with out leg pain usually settles with physio. Once pain settles do back muscle strengthening exercises. Drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration because dehydrated disc is more prone to injury

did you hurt yourself while playing? Please avoid playing for a few days. Stretch the lower back muscles. And ice pack if the pain has been there for less than 7 days.

It could be a muscle Spasm or some joint related issue. Do some icing, or you can take any Over the counter pain killer. If pain doesn't resolve in 2 days then see a orthopaedic doctor or Physiotherapist.
