Sometimes a back pain can be indicative of conditions unrelated to the spine or connecting bone structure; I am currently taking medications that can possibly have adverse effects on the kidneys and my doctor has advised me, if I should happen to notice back pain, previously not experienced, I should immediately seek medical attention since such pain could be an indicator of incipient kidney failure; also, I had suffered from chronic pancreatitis at one time and when I had gall bladder removal surgery to remedy a sever case of gall stones causing the pancreatitis, I noticed that a long (years long) chronic back pain I'd had also disappeared after the surgery; I mentioned this to my doctor and he said pancreatitis often presents as a sharp pain in the upper back; it sometime pays to go a little deeper than just dismissing a situation as "Oh, its just another little back pain"...
