  As a fellow truck driver I can say that your question is very familiar to me. I too suffered from back ache for several year.
  My orthopedic surgeon told me that this is a very common problem for truck drivers. all the bumping with the truck hurts our spine. I had a disc herniation that was fixed by surgery.
  you need an orthopedic surgeon not a GP.

  A constant low back pain can be a result of a lot of things. A friend of mine (63 years old) had a back pain and she didn't pay enough attention to it assuming its just nothing. In the end it was due to metastatic lung cancer.
