Hello,
Based on your symptoms looks like an acute muscle spasm. Since the pain reduced with heat and is in the middle of the back points more to a muscular origin pain. If the pain radiates to your left shoulder and is increasing on exertion, I would recommend you to visit a physician at the earliest.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
