A stiff back can have many causes, but one of them can be from weak core muscles or muscles that are being used incorrectly.

He should have a visit with his primary doctor, let him/her know what is going on and ask if some physical therapy to strengthen his core muscles, learn to use them correctly, by way of walking, standing, stooping turning etc. would be of benefit.

Good luck
