Hello,Welcome to the HCM,
Since the back pain with that severity seems to be less likely because of delayed periods.My suggestion would be take a urine test to rule out any infection and You must also go for an Xray KUB (kidney,ureter,bladder) to rule out any stone.
Some time stress and anxiety can also cause delayed period.
If the period is delayed for more days,get an Ultrasound abdomen done and discuss with the doctor.

General & Family Physician Dr. B M Gupta's  Response
In my opinion you are not pregnant .The back pain is due to
1-Delayed periods
2-may be due to pelvic infection
3-infection in urine
4-- do you feel shivering ,feverish(low grade temperature)
If such a patient comes to me I would advise
1-take tab.brufen
2- blood for TLC,DLC
3-Routine urine exam.get ultrasound to rule out stone
For periods I would advise some low dose hormone drug
Feel free to contact again
Thanks
