My chiro took x-rays to make sure there wasn't any structural damage to my spine - he didn't want to do any manipulations that could make an underlying cause worse.
If they're pushy and you don't like it, find another doctor.
And no, you're not too young to go - even if all of the pain *is* from your weight, you shouldn't have to live in pain until you reach your goal weight. That actually hit a bit of a nerve for me, so I apologize in advance if I sound harsh, but you wouldn't ignore pain NOT associated with weight, so someone telling you to essentially deal with pain until you're thinner is insulting to me.
