Hello!
Welcome on HCM!
Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms could be related to an infection.
I recommend consulting with your GP for a physical exam, an X Ray study of the spinal cord of this region and sacrum, a complete blood count, PCR, ESR for infection. A lumbar puncture may be needed, if suspicions of an infection of the fused vertebral bodies is suspected.
Hope to have been helpful!
Wishing all the best, Dr. Aida
