I have had a slight pain in my back for a few days. It hurts more when I sit for a long time. What could be the reason?

There are many possible causes of back pain, and it is often difficult to pinpoint a specific cause with the information you provide. Sitting for long periods of time, especially with poor posture, can cause tension in the back and pressure on the discs, leading to pain. Muscle strains, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or other spinal conditions can also cause back pain. Risk factors for back pain include being overweight, having a sedentary lifestyle, and weak muscles, but with the information you provide, we cannot determine the exact cause of your back pain.
Back pain is very common and is usually not a sign of a serious problem, but if it becomes unbearable, if you develop additional symptoms such as numbness or tingling, or if the pain does not improve within a few weeks, it is recommended that you see a healthcare professional.
You should talk to a physical therapist or orthopedic specialist to learn more about the cause of your back pain and the most appropriate treatment.
