My lower back pain went away when I bought new, firmer mattress.
Of course, I don't know if that will work for you.

Massage, stretching, and as Chicag0 mentioned, yoga are great. For pain relief, try a heating pad or one of those heat wraps you can buy. I also used Salon Pas (mentholated) to help loosen me up. Physical Therapy for 2 months finally got me back to where standing/sitting aren't painful anymore.

Im having the same problem. This may sound funny but I have a hard time getting up. My lower right side gets super tight. I feel like a old man!

I had that problem this summer. It took two months to get diagnosed. I walked like an 80 year old woman, bent over, small steps. Couldn't do stairs. Couldn't get in or out of a car comfortably. My mother is close to 70 and she could have beat me in a foot race. Back pain is nothing to be laughed off - see a doctor. You may have a pinch nerved or slipped disk. I had a CT and two MRIs to get to the bottom of my pain.
