and how long will it take to heal

Well since you are pregnant, there is not many painkillers besides tylenol that you can use without a doctors advise or watch. But, if it is on your back, you could try using an ice pack first for inflammation becuase most likely that is causing you more pain. next, try rubbing or have someone rub some pompeian brand olive oil onto the affected area until absorbed and place a heating pad on a comfortable setting. Just make sure that you do not do put a heating pad where the baby is. If you feel you must then only for a short period of time on the lowest setting as a setting too high can affect the baby like if you were in a hot tub or sauana. anywhere else is ok.Massage in the area can do wonders too before or after you do the other steps or on its own. Good luck and hope you feel better.
