Suggest Remedy For Low Back Pain After Spinal Tap Procedure

I had a spinal tap two weeks ago today. I had headache for a week and last Thursday started to have low back pain into my buttock area and it would come a go but last night it came and nothing is helping it. It feels stiff and I cannot sit or lie down without it hurting terribly. Is this common?
