Hello, Increasing low back pain with cough or sneeze may indicate a bulging disc. Symptoms worsen because the increased intraabdominal pressure from the cough or sneeze adds pressure on the spine. Having a physician examine your back, hips and legs and perhaps MRI will be important.
Let us know how it goes.
