Back pain can be caused by many different issues, or by problems with different spinal or nearby structures. It is first important to have a proper work up and diagnosis so that one knows where the pain comes from. This at minimum requires a thorough history & examination, and likely imaging. Unless there is neurologic compromise or severe pain, conservative care first such as rehabilitation.
