What Causes Lower Backache While Suffering From Chronic Cough?

Hi, I have a problem... A few days ago started, and now is getting worse... When I m coughing, I feel a sharp pain in my lower back, and both inner tights, down to my knees. I thought might just some muscle pain, but now I barely can walk... Difficult to stand up, or even just to sit. Keeps me awake night time, I m happy if I can sleep 2 hrs in one night. What is very strange, when I m touching my inner tight, the pain moving also to my upper back. Unfortunately, staying in my tights also, just comes a bit of extra, as a back pain... Fantastic... I m working as a truck driver, so I really need some help, cos I need to use my both legs, and my back to do my job... Thank you

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

In my opinion, it would be advisable to show to a doctor and get your self-evaluated for a cough and back pain. An X-ray and blood test with sputum culture would be ideal.
