More info?: Is it sharp or achy? Are you passing gas or belching? Type of pain? How long does it last? Anything make it better? Anything make it worse? Does food affect the pain? Have you had any surgery ? How long has it been there? Have you tried any medications? Did they work? Did you injure yourself? Pulled muscle etc? Has anyone done any studies? Need a bit more info? Any nausea? Fevers?

Acid Reflux: If you can positively correlate that belching relieves the backache then you may have acid reflux. Mid back pain can also e due to cardiovascular disease, gstrointestinal disease or conditions of the spine. In a young individual the acid reflux would be most likely. However statistics can not replace a good history and exam. So it will be prudent to see your pcp and discuss it with him/her.
