I hear a lot of people say "use a harness for their backs!" but the back doesnt really seem to be the big issue here, I would be more worried about their throats..
We use both, but a harness is used if we are going out 'adventuring' or in areas where he is more likely to pull/be pulled (area with a lot of dogs, car rides w/ seatbelt , unknown walking trails, etc). For normal day to day routine jaunts where there is little risk of any pulling or pressure, we just use his collar.
When he was younger and still working on his leash skills, he was ONLY in a harness on walks. He kept making himself cough and gag with his pulling on a collar - so it was less-so for his back and more-so for that.
A well fitting harness that puts his weight on his chest, not his shoulders is going to be a great option if you are concerned. Depending on the corgi and the harness, it may be prudent to attach a leash to BOTH a harness and a collar with a splitter in case he manages to get out of his harness (I have never had it happen on any level, but, again, if you are concerned or have reason to think it could happen, it is not a bad idea. If your harness is too big or poorly fit, it is not that hard for corgis to step out of things with their stub legs).
If you are still having issues with pulling a back clipping harness can make it worse unless you are ACTIVELY training your dog (stopping whenever he pulls, waiting for him to correct himself, then continuing, etc). A Front clip harness may be better or a halti. Haltis are obviously not good for car rides or situations where you need to pull your dog, but for general walking, they can be great for fine tuning your loose leash walk.
In terms of a collar - in my opinion - a wide collar seems to do better than a narrow one. If they are putting their weight on their throat, having a wide collar will help distribute that pressure.
So, examples:
Harness that puts pressure on the chest - not neck or shoulders
Wide collar - 1 1/2" - 2" has been a good range for us.
