Strange back pains

I know about the pains you can get at the front but could the pain in my back be connected to my diveticular?

Gaz. I say most definitely. I always get lower back discomfort with a flare-up. I don't get pain, but more of a lower backache.

Yes. When I get a flare up I have low back paint.

Sounds pretty familiar for me, back pain lower left side and front lower left abdomen. Mines just flared up for some reason after a good period, trying figure what the trigger was that has caused it. 

Yes it could.  My osteopath told me that all the lower muscles become tense during a flare up, and that could radiate into back pain. 

Thanks for the replies i will have to keep my eyes on it.

My pain is more to the right lower back sometimes spreading round towards the hip

Good call by your osteopathic doctor. I like them because they know the muscles and can treat symptoms relating to illness.

Do you have frequent IBS?
