Severe cough may cause stretch to lower back muscle.that we call muscle strain because of excessive bouts of cough that require muscle action.this will slowly go away . You need to avoid excessive forward bending and twisting and jerky movements. You can take some pain killers if pain is severe enough that is affecting your daily activities . If pain persist for more than 2 weeks then you must consult a orthopaedic surgeon for expert opinion and further management .
