Your back pain is most likely not related to breastfeeding.
Increase calcium in your diet or take calcium supplements regularly for at least breastfeeding.

Reason for the back pain could be calcium deficiency
Since you have been breastfeeding for the last 10 months you are advised to take calcium supplements regularly

Breastfeeding has no relation with pain in back. You have to consult to discuss the issue
