A member asked:

After standing several hours, or doing heavy squat exercises (60kg) i sometimes experience light to medium low back pain. it is a kind of dull, somewhat painful feeling for about a day. is this purely a muscle imbalance issue and can i safely ignore ?

Could be spinal.: This could be something purely muscular, or it could be spinal, related to arthritis or malalignment within the spinal column. You may want to at least have an x-ray with some flexion and extension views to better assess
