Other than proper shoes/insoles, best treatment to prevent or recover from back pain?
Some more details, I work in retail. Specifically, shipping and receiving. I take in hundreds of boxes off FedEx trucks. I make dozens and dozens of trips while carrying 10 pairs of shoes or 50 articles of clothing. Also processing, which is standing for hours putting pins on clothing. A full shift is 8 hours with hour break.
Pain wise, it's mostly upper back and middle back.

I've worked part time jobs before where there is a lot of strain on my back, and lesson I have learned is that when you try to lift something from the ground, you squat, grab it, and lift yourself up using your feet, as if you were doing the squats. Never bend over to pick something heavy up, it fucks up our spine over a short time.

You need physiotherapy, NSAID+Omeprazol and a couple of weeks working 50% or better just off work
A good back brace helps so long as you don't get bad habits with it, naturally always lift with legs, and do various back/ core exercises. I know working out is likely the last thing you want to do after work but it really does help.

stretch and/or yoga

Chiropractor, followed by massage therapy. Didn't believe it myself until I tried it. Works wonders, though.
