Musculoskeletal: The most common cause of back pain is muscle strain. This type of pain is made worse by movement of the back in different directions and is relieved with rest and OTC analgesics. Kidney infection is much less common and patients usually will have fever, back pain, feel ill and may or may not also have symptoms of bladder infection.
