hi,you didnot write about medcines and measures adopted for last four years for backache.neither you have mentiond about vertebral column curvatures and shape.any how you should see some physiotherapist ,could be helpful if your bacr ache persists then you must consult some neurosurgeon or orthpedic surgeon.meanwhile if attending office or watching tv, try to sit upright with support to the back and during driving use ortho cushion. you can use this cushion in office chair also.
