Injury? Posture?: Precisely determining WHAT is causing back pain is not easy, but also not terribly important. The most common causes are related to aging: degeneration/breaking down of the discs between the vertebrae or of the facet/spinal connector joints.These can contribute to muscle strains, sprains or spasm of the supporting muscles often from twisting or lifting. Your doctor can eval/treat after an exam.

Need more info!: What kind of work do you do? Are you overweight or have other health problems? What part of your back hurts? What makes it better & what makes it worse? Does the pain radiate (travel) down your leg or up into your neck? Did you injure your back and, if so, what happened? If you resubmit your question with this info, we MIGHT be able to help you.

Depends: I am sorry your back is acting up. Your back needs tender loving care and attention. Go to Doctor for evaluation and treatment.
