What does it mean when your back tingles?

I am a 35 year old male. I want to know what does it mean when your back tingles?

After exercise, the muscle may contract and relax causing a feeling of tingling in your back. If the tingling is persistent, then you need to see your primary care physician since it may be related to skin problems or other systemic diseases.

If it's just in one area or spot, it may be due to nerve involvement. I cannot comment on the whole back tingling without more specifics.
