To dream of having back pain suggests that you are buckling under the weight of your responsibilities in your waking life.
Do you need to ask for help? Or find a way to break them down to be more manageable?
Perhaps someone else is putting this stress and pressure onto you at work or at home. Do you need to tell them how much it’s affecting your health and happiness?
If it was lower back pain this often means that your workload is too much. Can you delegate to others? Or find a job that is less demanding?
Maybe you are holding yourself back in life because you are too anxious or tense about the unknown. It might be time to loosen up and see where a more easy-going attitude could take you.
Another interpretation is that someone is out to get you and it's a warning you to watch your back. Someone could be stabbing you in the back so be careful who you trust.
One thought process is that it is your subconscious is urging you to leave any painful memories or events behind you in order to move on.
The dream could simply reflect your worries of throwing your back out. If you have a physical job or are invested in an active project or hobby, you may be concerned that your back could go at any time. Is there anything you can do to protect yourself?
If you have had a longstanding back problem, then your feelings about this could just be filtering through into your dreamscape, especially if it causing you to have interrupted nights.
One final thought when dreaming about back pain is that you have lost someone who was a great supporter of your work or you as a person.
Has a work colleague recently left for another job? Have you lost contact with a good friend? Or has your relationship taken a turn for the worst meaning your partner no longer supports your choices and beliefs?
