Had back trouble all my life there. I use an ice pack wrapped in one layer of a dish towel and lay on it.

Heat makes it worse.

I try not to bend over like that for too long, I bend at the knees and use one hand on the floor for support.

Go see your doctor just to be sure...most likely nothing to worry about..

Can you remember doing anything to injure your back at some time? At such a young age this kind of pain is unusual so I suggest you see a doctor and have his do an x-ray or MRI. Good luck!
