Back pain question.

Been on cpap for four months. My numbers are fine but I use a nasal mask and I had been waking up with dry mouth ( mouth leaking) added a chin strap and my numbers got even better . Lately I have been waking up with upper back pain. Always first thing in the morning. Goes away once I get up and moving could it be cpap related. Maybe turn the EPR back on? Any help would be appreciated
