Yeah, I'll have a talk to my coach about it on Saturday, and see how I feel on Sunday when I have to squat.
He's got a pretty good sense for these things, and he isn't a physio or anything, but seems to know heaps about back injuries(and other injuries), maybe because he's had some too!
I talked to my flatmate's boyfriend, who is a physiotherapist yesterday right afterwards. He said it sounded like some sort of muscle strain, as opposed to something to do with the actual discs, which is good, and that it should be good within a week. Well I'd like for it to be good enough to squat on Sunday though haha, the equipment will make it much easier on my body anyway, so I think I have a good chance of squatting well this Sunday.
