Hello,
The back pain may be due to spine related problems as in prolapsed disc or nerve compression, UTI is unrelated.
You can go for a urine culture and start antibiotics according to the culture reports. Drink plenty of water also. Nothing much to worry and you will improve with antibiotics.
You can consult a neurologist for back pain and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
