Brief Answer:
It may be due to these medications.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

As per your History, at your age, cause of chest congestion and dry cough may be allergic reaction due to these medications. Let me know whether do you have itching over body, rash, breathlessness? Kindly follow up with detailed History.

I'd suggest you to consult with your doctor for detailed History and examination. You may require antihistaminic and syp. dextrometharphan and complete blood count, chest x ray, patch test after consultation. Kindly continue treatment for backache as per neurosurgeon opinion. Kindly follow if you have any query.
