Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic
I have gone through your query and understand your concern.As he has fever so I think he should be having infection. Needs culture and sensitivity of urine and x ray lumbar spine to know cause of backache. Hiccups can be due to increased urea level in blood. So blood urea should be measured. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you.
Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
