It is better to consult a Neurophysician or an Orthopaedic surgeon in your area for a proper diagnosis.
Treatment for pain is by and large the same but a physical examination is required.

The nature of his job and working out in the gym may have resulted in back muscle spasms.Let him take analgesics like ibuprofen and application of the Diclofenac gel.
For the back pain from exercise or exertion, use ice application after the activity to reduce tissue damage, inflammation, and pain. After a 24-hour period, use hot water pack to speed up the muscular stiffness.
