Can't come to a specific diagnosis with the history alone, I would advise you to visit the ER and get evaluated and undergo investigations such as X-Ray, CT/MRI(only if indicated). You may require a smooth muscle relaxant, antacids and a topical painkiller gel. I would advise you correct your posture and maintain the proper posture while sitting, lying down, standing and walking which may improve your condition.
