Suggest Treatment For Lower Back Pain

Hello, I am a 31 year woman living in Kolkata, India for the past 2 years. I have been running for 40 minutes on a treadmill for 3 to 4 days a week. However, increasingly, I have developed a pain at my lower back. I want to continue running and exercising, but would like to know what's the best way to proceed now. How do I take care of my lower back pain, without having to give up running?
