Hi bestyoga
back pain is a nasty one, maybe there is something wrong in the way you practice (for ex. too agressive in the pose..)
or you are going through an alignment period where every part of the body is looking for its proper place
don't despair, see it as a temporary situation. by following a proper, regular and steady practice all sorts of pain will dissappear. it is important for yourself to try and localize the pain and see if you can pinpoint it, being concious about it, it will accelerate the healing process. one day without even noticing the pain will be gone
San Salutations I think is one of the best remedies. pick the variation which is less strainuous (pref the one with the Cobra pose-Bhujangasana) and begin every morning with 3-6 rounds and slowly you add up as you are getting more flexible and warm. always finish with Shavasana. as you can see is not only one pose that does the healing but the combination and the way they are executed, like synchronizing breath with action and apply Bandha's.
is not a bad idea to see a Shiatsu practitioner, Shiatsu is very powerfull. i talk from personal experience, i recommend even for those who feel ok as it will bring more balance and harmony to the whole. a powerfull boost in Yoga practice
hope i could help
cheers
