Soft tissue disorder: Question about why an 18 year old might have chronic back pain. Amongst females look for Hypermobility Syndrome, with pelvic ligament strain & pain generation. Amongst males consider similar disorder, but initiated by mechanical injuries to low back & pelvic regions pursuing extreme sports. Osteopathic evaluation of the pelvic girdle is recommended in both instances. See comments:
