Take some paracetamol. You can take ibuprofen too, which should help with inflammation. If symptoms persist, see your doctor. It's likely postural or related to muscle tension/strain on some way. If it proves stubborn, some physio may be needed.

You're clearly way too young to be worrying about heart attacks. Heart attacks in the under 50s are actually quite rare. Those that they happen to are often congenital in nature and the chances of detecting them are very hit and miss, so it's just not worth the worry. Honestly, mate, you're wasting your life worrying about something that is extremely unlikely to happen.

Are you having any kind of treatment for your anxiety?

Also take comfort in that low back pain can be innately upsetting. I injured my back and it was aggravated by driving. I'd be nauseated and in tears by the time I got to work after a 20 min commute. Add that to anxiety and it's a tough tough thing. So you're very likely okay, and may benefit from some medical advice in terms of exercise or physiotherapy to relieve it. Worst thing you can do is get more tense - it will make things so much worse.
