Weight matters: Given your height and weight, your bmi indicates obesity. Obesity has been linked to low back pain and many other chronic conditions (like arthritis of your back, hips and knees) as well as hypertension, heart disease, type ii diabetes, etc. So weight does matter! that said, the place to start is your pcp for a detailed history and exam. Other needed studies will be determined by your appt.
