I'm a medical student. Since the last two-three weeks or so I have a mild back ache in my lower back especially on flexion of the back. It all started as a minor ache on waking up one morning but relieved on its own in the initial few days but then since last two three weeks or so it does not go away even after a diclofenac spray over the area. Also since childhood I had a habit of sleeping with my back curled but since a few months i've been trying to sleep straight. Is it related to that.

Hi physical inactivity is one of greatest reason for bony pain this days. Remaining pathological changes like severe decrease in back bone spaces c/a intervertebral spaces, compression of nerve, fractures, tb, osteomylitis, physiological like kyposis or scoliosis like disease of back bones may gives you pain. Even wrong sleeping posture or more spongy bed can gives you pain. Muscular spasm over back can pains alot. I had explain in lyman language hope you understood please better you go for x ray. Do exercises. Apply ayurvedic oils like narayan tail do massage daily.
