Can a virus cause back pain?

Yes: Viruses (for example, the flu) can cause diffuse bodily aches and pains, including back pain. Recent studies have shown a potential link between bacterial infection and back pain - therefore, it is possible that viruses may eventually similarly be linked to back pain.
