[|AI|]  In my opinion you should stop worrying. For relief from pain have some painkiller along with a muscle relaxant along with methylcobal and gabapentin. Do not lie down on soft mattress use hard one instead. When getting up from bed always take a lateral position first then hang your legs down and then get up. When working, maintain a good posture of your back. Add a lumbar support cushion to you chair when working. Do not strain your self or over exert. If the pain increases do some hot fermentation locally and make a routine of doing some back strengthening exercise daily. Start with 15 mins twice a day to 25 mins twice a day and walk for 30-40 mins a day alt east. I am sure you will be fine in 2 weeks
