Many things: Pain in the abdomen that radiates to the back is fairly common and can occur in many abdominal problems. These include gallblader problems, pancreas problems, and problems with the kidneys and ureter. The best approach would be to see your doctor to get a detailed history and physical exam to determine the cause.
