Brief Answer:
Chronic kidney disease

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Both lower back pain and hypertension together with elevated proteins in urine are signs chronic kidney disease.

You should do further examinations such as a total blood count, blood chemistry, ERS, blood sugar and HbA1c, and also electrophoresis of urine.
There is an underlying cause causing it.
