[|AI|]  Hi you have bad hacking cough, and you have probably pulled a back muscle causing back pain on getting up from bed and difficulty in Chat Doctor.  In prolonged hacking cough, slipped disc is a very common problem which causes severe back pain. I would recommend you take a muscle relaxant along with Ibuprofen, Do Hot fomentation of back and Muscle strengthening exercises for your lower back. If there is no relief in 10 days then go for MRI Lower spine.
