Releif from lower back pain

I recently started working in retail and stand all day.  My lower back really hurts after a shift.  Does anyone have any suggestions for pain relief . I have been putting some ICY HOT on my back after my shift but it does not help that much.  I am overweight and I know that does not help wither.  Any suggestions?
