Hope your back is feeling better today, if not you could try an ice pack as can be more effective at pain relief than heat (although heat great for muscle spasm). The latest research on back pain is to keep it moving, go for a gentle walk or try laying on the floor/bed and gently moving ie knees side to side, knees to chest or standing up and arching backwards.
If breast feeding the only analgesia you can take is paracetamol.
If problem persists, not showing any signs of improvement or starts radiating into your legs i'd nip to your friendly gp for further advice.
Goodluck
