Suggest Treatment For Soreness And Pain In The Back

Good morning, I have had a sore back for the past 2 weeks, I notice when I sit down it seems to be alright once I get up the pain returns. I am obese maybe that could be the problem? When I m lying in bed and turn over my stomach and back hurt. I m finding it really difficult at times. I have changed my diet and hoping this could make a change.
