Stop bothering me, stop pestering me, stop nagging me.


If someone tells you to get off their back, it means to stop bothering or nagging them. The image is of them right behind you, nagging.



You could also get someone off of someone else's back, which means you help that person to get rid of nagging or bothersome people.
