I am unaware of any studies investigating if yoga has different effects on different types of back pain. You might consult our systematic review paper on how yoga impacts back pain in general. See the URL below.

Dear Gordon L Warren

Thank you so much.
While treating my patients through Life style management,I found that piles has been one of the cause,of backache related to muscles.If constipation which is responsible for pile is controlled will give relief.The other cases of backache by slipdisc i.e by displacement of vertebrae were relieved by Yog exercise.

The weakness of core muscle is the important cause for back pain. Therefore the yoga protocol which provide the stability to core muscle is very effective for LBP. The following yoga pose effective for LBP like bridge posture give strength to the gluteal and hip musculature and cobra pose provide stability to eretor spine muscle ,in addition to boat posture and uddiyan bandha give strength to transveus abdominis muscle. Apart from that we also practiced the diaphragmatic breathing .
