Not enough info: It is worth getting checked out. Thyroid issues can cause weight gain and constipation, which can cause back pain. Just having all those changes something isn't right and you shouldn't ignore it.

Agree with Dr. R: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor. Wish you good health!
