Crippling Back Pain at 16?

My name is Jordyn and I'm 16 years old. For the past 6 months or so I've been having terrible back pain in both my upper and lower back. Some days it's dull and i can get stuff done but other days it's terrible to the point where it hurts to even sit down. Like i keep having to move positions every couple of minutes. Most of the pain is either in my lower back or or between my shoulders. My friends have tried to help by giving me massages and I've even gone to spas to get a massage by a professional but neither of those have worked. Sometimes my back pain is so severe that I also get migranes and/or terrible headache that i can feel with every step i take! I NEED help! Please! I'm about to start school and I don't want to lag around! Please PLEASE help me!!

Thanks and i don't live with my mom i'm living with my dad. And he's a truck driver so he's gone most of the time. I have told him about my back pain and he sais when he gets home he'll take me to see a doctor and/or a chiropractor (sp?)..i do hope i get help soon tho because my back keeps me up at night and most times the pain is so bad that i can't help but to cry.
