Hello,
Sometimes, back pain can actually be caused by chronic coughing. The act of coughing can put a strain on the back and make it contract more than normal.
You can use honey, tea, breath humidity air use ibuprofen for pain. If you don't feel better consult with your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
