I'm not constantly in pain or anything like that, although I can't say the same for the really bad cases of it that require surgery (hopefully mine won't in the future). Basically, if I want to sit down and do homework or something of the sort, I have to take a lot of long breaks, because my back does tend to bother me then. I used to paint all the time, but it hurts too much to do it that often anymore. The problem is that I'm in the same position for too long. I can do physical labor and it won't strain my back as long as I'm moving around, and not just standing there holding a heavy box or something, hahaha. You're right about the name though. I'd probably call it "Happy Back Pain", because how can you be upset when diagnosed with something that sounds so joyful?
