I strained mine a few weeks back and I have to be real careful. Mine was lower back as well and I strained it doing jumping drills then the next day did something called a congdon locomotive and felt it tweak. It sucked. I got some celebrex and within about 5 or 6 days it got better. Celebrex is safe by the way. Everyone kept asking me if I was trying to kill myself.
my lower back used to hurt when lifting...started going to the chiro and it went away.
now its back (and I still go to the chiro regularly) and I know its from the lower back pumping up. Goes away after about 15 minutes of my workout, obviously from the pump dissapating.
Ive started a couple of leg stretches and finishing my workout with weighted ab exercises helps it as well. A good lifting belt helps and I dont do free squats anymore.

I've had back strain like that before, and the only thing that helped it go away was to lay off the heavy exercise for a couple of weeks. We all want to work through stuff like that, but it can be detrimental in the long run.
