There are many different reasons why one can have back pain. It can be as something as simple as muscle strain to something as serious as broken back from trauma. The most common reason for back pain probably falls into the catchall group of conditions called musculoskeletal injury whereupon a person has caused strain to the musculoskeletal support of the back. This is probably self-limiting and should go away with short time and with conservative treatment. It is when back pain does not go away within matter of days or weeks and if you have pain running down your legs, you should seek the help of a doctor. The other reasons for back pain, which are more specifically related to the spine, are injuries to the disc.
