Chronic lower back pain

Gents,
Any experience with exercise or herbal remedies that may help offset lower back pain brought on by mild arthritis (and being 49 yrs old and 6'3' 245)?

Talk about voodoo. Its seems most Docs really don't have a staright forward or "one size fits all" solution for lower back pain outside of several different drugs for when the pain flares up. I know losing will have to help to some degree but exercise often hurts. Running seems to inflame the situation while walking seems to be OK. Stretching seems like it helps but hurts while doing it. Im not sure if this hurting along the way is good pain or bad. Any personal opinions on the subject would be appreciated. Sucks getting old!
Thanks
