It may be due to compression of nerves ,or depend upon if there is history of trauma in past years. Vertebral pain if occuring in lower region with the same complaisn then it may be a case of coccidynia,or other vertbreae may be involved. For treatment first u should get a x ray done,then ddpedning upon pathology treat that as. For daily routine patient can also wear band that is support on standing ,avoid heavy work load and driving bike or scooty as it may enchance your pain...on even sudden jerk.

Go with the usual treatment - muscle relaxants and analgesic!Next I would suggest for a spine CT, u have to rule out dangerous diagnosis! Also if patient is financially strong go for aortic Doppler as it can be a long standing aortic dissection!

Does he play sports? Does he have any deformities you can see in his spine? Family history? Any previous injury?

If acute pain I would have said pneumomediastinum, carditis, chest mass as diagnosis differential. ER background here.
