Well..
As your only 27 years old, at your age back problems should not be a problem. You say you are overweight though, and that you have been working out?
As far as still not losing weight, sounds like your diet is wrong and your work out plan is improper.
As far as the back, is the pain a poking pain? A sharp pain like that of a needle?
Is the pain in the upper or lower back?
If its a sharp/poking pain, goto a physician ASAP and have your back looked at. In any cases, at your age back problems is not common. Most likely from back trauma, improper work out routine, muscle spasm, or you injured your back.
In any case you should visit the physician regardless if its a little pain or a lot of pain, maybe its something as simple as a muscle spasm which can be treated with some diclofenac sodium, or maybe you have back trauma and dislocated a part of your spine, no one can be for certain.
As far as how to relieve the pain? Any OTC (over the counter) arthritis drugs will relieve the pain. Arthritis drugs are commonly used for moderate to light back pain. Tylenol wont do much..
But please visit your physician!
it might be your posture you are not sitting with your back straight
I would get a doctors appointment just to be sure it is not something serious. You might be hurting your self by exercising the wrong way. He will have you get a mri, then go from there.
