What Could Cause A Back Pain After A Fever?

I have acute bronchitis and am on antibiotics, expectorant, and antihistemene. Before diagnosis my fever was over 104. Now with medications has lowered to 101. However, today I have developed severe upper back pain. What does this mean? Thank you.

Hello,
Process of acute bronchitis preceded by either viral or bacterial infection leading to inflammation of bronchi causing formation of a lot of mucus. Due to infection you have got fever but this may occur due to complications like pneumonia. coughing a lot to expel out sputum causes upper back pain. So you need to consult a good physician for further evaluation. Before that go for blood examination- CBC, chest x-ray, sputum culture, lung function test. Continue your medication and take rest with good amount of water.
take care, bye.
