You are too young: You are much too young for this complaint! There are RARE forms of arthritis but the pain is only one of the symptoms these diseases have. NO BACK BRACE!!! What you need is EXERCISE and perhaps a consultation with an execise physiologist ( most large GYMS have such resources. If these pains persist start with a general physical exam and a few basic blood tests. Hope this helps Dr Z
