My lower back is in pain most the time. my fingertips get a sharp pain often, along with my right arm. i'm 18. are these related? what should i do?

Unrelated : Probably unrelated. Lower back problems usually affect the legs. But some systemic illnesses can cause these symptoms. Autoimmune disorders, sickle cell, fibromyalgia, many things. Please see your doctor for a thorough evaluation and treatment if necessary.
