Unlikely: Usually, back pain is back pain. Your other 2 mentioned problems( cinstipation and Reflux) a good doctor should be able to get under control for you, if you follow-up and keep your appointments. Most back pain spontaneously resolved within 4-6 weeks. If not, you know who to go see.

Diet and exercise: Losing weigh will help with your acid reflux and backache. Start exercising regularly for about 30 minutes/day. Do it as tolerated and increase the intensity gradually. For constipation you may take fiber laxative and drink enough water daily so that your urine is mostly colorless.
