You could try panadol.
But I think if you are wanting to avoid it that a bath, shower or hot water bottle would be best.
Maybe you could try gentle walking if you want to try & start labour.
Shower helped with DD2. She was sideways, so I had alot of back pain & I had the shower on my back between contractions. It was so good.
If it gets real bad try going on your hands & knees over a bean bag or something to take the pressure off your back.
I had the same problem with DS & labour was too quick for a shower, so I used a beanbag. It helped.
Hope it doesn't last too long!
