Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Neck stiffness, fever and headaches may indicate meningitis, these symptoms seem not connected with low back pain. Get evaluated by your Neurologist even to exclude meningitis. If excluded, then treatment about the pain may include NSAID drugs, physical therapy, etc.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
