Does it wake up up a: Does it wake you up at night. We think of back pain as mechanical back pain and inflammatory back pain like ankylosing spondylitis. Usually inflammatory back pain does better with actvity and mechanical back pain worse with activity. Your physicians will evalaute you and you may need to see a rheumatologist.
