Hi,
Your BP is not too high. 130/90 is not high. You don't need any medicine for it. Just exercise and some salt restriction may be needed.
Regarding your backache, for that, you would need physiotherapy. Sometimes drugs like gabapentin also are needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
