Back pain

My husband was diagnosed with Parkinson's three years ago. He has severe back pain. We have seen an orthopedic doctor for two years and he gets the steroid shots for a disc in his back every 3 months. The shots do not work anymore but now he experiences pain in all different areas of the back at different times. The pain is not just where the disc problem is. Does Parkinson's cause severe back pain?
