When you have back pain that is there for more than 6 months its termed as chronic pain. Most chronic pain is recurrent.
It is very important to know the root cause of pain and the factors aggravating the same.
Ask yourself these simple questions?

Is my posture correct during most part of the day especially in sitting, lifting and sleeping?

Am I doing enough stretches to keep my back muscles and leg muscles relaxed?

Do I do regular core strengthening exercises such as yoga, pilates, aerobics, recreational sports to keep my back in good shape?

Try and focus on improving posture, do daily walking and stretching exercises and core strengthening as tolerated at least 3 times a week to prevent irreversible damage to joints, discs, nerves and muscles in your low back. A physiotherapist can help customize an exercise program suited for your condition.
Consult your healthcare provider to see if exercises are safe for you. Good luck. Say no to back pain!
