The doctor will diagnose the reasons for your backache after performing several tests on you. A blood test is required. Plus X-ray of spine, CT scan or MRI can also be required depending upon the seriousness of the issue.

Hi. My back ache’s during the night and in the morning, its around my lower
back do you have any ideas why?
Hey? I have the same problem and mine is due to the chair used in my office look for comfortable chaires while working to avoid back aching problems
Are you over-weight? My sister-in-law had this problem and when she consulted the physician he advised her to lose weight. If you are not overweight, check out if it’s because of the wrong chairi you are using in the office, especially while working on the computer. There could be so many reasons behind back ache like, Unaccustomed strain on the back, pregnancy, strained ligament etc. It would be very difficult for me pin point the exact reason for your backache. At the same time I’d also like to suggest, that do not take backache lightly. It affects in the long run.
Please do not take painkillers for temporary relief. Please see a doctor.
back ache may also be due to some gynaecological problems…..may be some kind of infections like chlamidia infection etc..it may also be because of pregnancy and also muscle spasm….may be also due to disc problems..
better to see the doctor immediately..
