Back pain can be caused by a lot of issues such as: poor spine alignment, poor spine alignment that leads to muscle imbalance to compensate, poor lifting techniques, bad posture of time (or a short time with really bady posture), injury, blunt force trauma, defect in the jeans, wearing your wallet in your back pocket which actually shifts your hips and spin causing malalignement, bad shoes, standing all day with bad shoes or just ok shoes or on a hard surface, in proper weight lifting or exercise program.
Fixes: Go to a DO or Chiropractor to have your spine x-rayed and repaired. Get a physical therapist to work on your weaknesses. Be cognizant of your posture, exercise, make sure your eating a good diet of a variety of good foods... best o' luck.

See a chiropractor to make sure you are aligned properly (not being will certainly build to pain)
Much pain is from muscles below is an example of what may help (based on headaches).
Begin with a couple swigs of molasses or a couple of bananas (natural muscle relaxers) daily - magnesium (which regulates many things in the body) and potassium (a needed building block for muscles). - the doctors complete guide to vitamins and minerals
Drink at least 1/2 gallons of water per day. Running a body low on water is like running a car low on oil is the analogy the head of neurology at UCDavis told my husband about 10 years ago.
Now to the cause - muscles - your back, neck shoulders and head have tender spots. They are knots in the fibers of the muscles called trigger points. It makes the muscles tight which makes them press on nerves and other things causing the pain.
The cure - start with a professional massage, you will also want to go back over any place you can get to 6-12 times per session up to 6 times per day rubbing (or lightly scratching on your head) every where that is tender until the knots go away. The place where the skull connects to the spine press up under the edge of the skull (to get to those muscles).
For more information read The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies. It teaches what to do and where the pain comes from. Uses medical text to reach these conclusions.
