Hello
Chronic low backache may be due to many reasons like inter-vertebral disc prolapse,arthritis,hypocalcemia,posture related,pelvic pathology,genito-urinary causes etc.
Besides clinical assessment you may need investigations like routine hemogram,random blood sugar,liver function test,urine RE/ME,renal function test,TSH level,serum calcium and vitamin D level etc.
X-ray of L/S spine should also be taken.MRI of L/S spine can be done if needed.
Proper treatment depend upon findings.
