What are you wearing on your feet? Poor foot support/posture/padding/what have you, can and will cause lower back pain. I used to poopoo the idea but I am now a believer. I wear shoes when I can (lighter than boots which also helps) and they are padded, have good heels and soles to ensure that my foot is erect, not worn off on the sides, and padded to reduce impacts. Took me awhile to realize that investing in a good pair of what's on your feet is a lot cheaper than other options that will/can solve lower back problems.
Other thing is riding farm equipment. How many times has your back been exposed to severe shocks when your tractor hits something and jolts? I have gone over all my stuff to ensure that will no longer happen and it has made a difference too.
Other thing is I am now wearing the copper-magnetic bracelets, 2 ea, and the reason they have been in use all these years (off the grid) is that they work, apparently for others, and surely for me. After a friend had horrible arthritis in her hand and it pained her constantly, I got her a bracelet and when she told me she wouldn't be without (showering excluded) that convinced me to try it. One of my better decisions......online $15 and free shipping at select sites.
Then a couple of Aleve when things are keeping me awake. Tried them all and for this kind of pain, it works best for me.
I'm 6'5 and have had back problems all my life, a lot having to do with my height and the height of everything else. Currently I seldom have back pain. Reasons stated above.
If that doesn't work, suggestions are above from other folks. My 2c.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
