Back Pain and Weight

Sometimes your weight can be a factor in lower back pain. If the weight is around the middle of your body and it's directly placing stress on the joints of your spine, it's a factor causing the back pain.

If you don't match an ideal weight for your height but your weight is evenly distributed throughout the body, it's not contributing to your back problem.

Lastly, it really depends upon the back problem itself. If you fell down a flight of stairs and sprained your back, it doesn't matter what your weight is.
