Alternate ice and heat in 15 min intervals. You can get an electric heating pad they work well. Lay on the floor to do it.
Get a firm mattress. If that's out of your immediate price range, sleep on a folded blanket or a mat on the floor. Your shoulders might get cranky, but it will be relief on your back.
