Detailed Answer:
Hello

Welcome to healthcare magic

I Dr. Shama Taj answering your query.

As per your query, you are experiencing back pain from past 15 years. There are so many causes for back pain, most common are
1. stones in the gall bladder and Kidneys
2. Disc prolapse and spondylosis

In these conditions back pain will be aggravated on bending forward or doing some exercise. If there are no aggravating factors for your pain, then it is advisable to check your hemoglobin levels once as anemia can cause back pain.

Please get checked for the following conditions. Do not take medicines for pain as such.
Since percocet is prescribed medication, you should visit other doctor and also get investigations done to rule out possibilities.
Hope this answer is helpful

Thanks
