Welcome from Bristol, England.

I have no knowledge regarding your question, but am sure there must be a variety of lower back supports which might help alleviate aches and pains. Your Doctor might be able to advise on this if no one here has had previous similar experience.

Hope you recover quickly

Maybe try a kidney belt, or spring for a seat with a rider backrest. Welcome from Music City.
