I've been diagnosed with Strep throat. Im 17 years old. now obviously, hard time swallowing, swelling up of my tonsils, etc.

however, in the past hour or so, my back has been getting mains now and then, not bad ones, just minor. but its after every time i take a drink of a liquid. I haven't been able to eat anything solid for a day now, so i just drink liquids, but its still painful and hard to drink them.

I have no idea why all of a sudden my back is hurting, I was thinking maybe caused by my strep and the pain of swallowing, maybe a reaction to something, but i dunno. I've never had a problem like this before with strep, as i get it this same time every year, but this year has been worse.

If anyone could help me out, I'd be most appreciated.
