Common Questions and Answers about Back pain upper

pain

Avatar n tn I have read about Fibromyalgia but it doesnt sound exactly like me because I am not often tired and my pain is just in my upper back, nowhere else. The only thing that I have read about that makes sense is "Myofascial Pain Syndrome". I want this constant discomfort to go away or at least get better. I am truly beginning to think that this is going to be a lifetime issue and it is scaring me very much. I will give acupuncture and massage a try but I am just not confident in them.

Avatar n tn m only 6 weeks I woke up this morning with an awful pain in the left part of my upper back, that kinda sends this fluttery feeling to my ribs. It's fine if I don't move but everytime I get up or turn or lift my arms I'll have a sharp pain that takes my breath away. Should I be worried, an go get it checked or is this pretty common?

Avatar f tn I have been dealing with upper back pain for almost 8 months also numbness and tingling in my right arm and leg. I have been seeing a D.O and we finally got and MRI done and it just showed a small bulging disc in my "t" area. I had been a heavy drinker until 2 years ago. I have been taking 10 mg of valium for over 2 years and then the doctor had me on hydrocodone 500/5 1-2 a day for about 6 months. I have no other symptoms but the pain is horrible. My D.O.
Avatar f tn I have been dealing with mid to upper back pain for over 8 months. I have been seeing a D.O and after months of maniuplation with really no relief we finally we able to get an mri. The MRI didn't really show anything significant except a slight bluging disc in I think my T-4. I was on pain meds hydrocodone 500/5 1 a day and valium 10mg-30mgs. I am not taking the hydro anymore and am tapering off of the valium, now at 10mg, My question is why am I in pain? The pain migrates some.
248167 tn?1220363690 Strained muscles and sprained ligaments are among the most common causes of left upper back pain. This usually occurs when excessive pressure, often from exercising too much, causes the tissue to stretch too much or excessively, causing them to become damaged or torn. Pulled muscular tissue and pinched nerves are other possibilities. Take some over the counter anti-inflammatory painkiller like ibuprofen. Hot compressions, and topical muscle relaxants are also helpful.
Avatar f tn For years now whenever I stand for more than a couple of hours my upper back is in agony. If I stay standing the pain gets so bad that I get a cold, numb feeling in my upper back. Could this just be my posture as I do tend to hunch my back a lot or are there other things this could be? I am 21 years old if that helps? Thank you.

Been to a Chiroprator for 3 and no better now seeing a back specialist GP who xrayed me and found nothing now on hydrochortizone injections which help for about 10 days then my pain gets worse again.

Avatar m tn I have noticed pain in the mid to upper part of my back when I exhale. Any idea what it could be?
Avatar f tn I can feel pain on my upper back with similar signs of Thoracic. Most pain can be felt on left side and armpit. I went to doctor for check-up. I was asked to do some few stretching and checked the appearance of my skin at the back. I was told that most probably wrong posture due to long sitting hours at work. I finished the dosage of Camgesic(Anarex) and Arcoxia (etoricoxib). The pain lessens but it never goes away.
Avatar n tn Hello, sorry to hear about your back pain. I had upper back pain that ended up radiating down my arm and back and forth. I thought everyone would think I had gone crazy stating that the pain traveled. Also I had burning sensations and tingling. Turned out to be a pinched nerve in my neck C6&C7. When this happens there are tiny nerves that go down your back and down your arms. depending on which nerver produces the different locations of pain.
Avatar m tn s normal to experience back pain during pregnancy. Also she wants to know if whether a doctor could prescribe a pain killer during pregnancy Best Regards.
Avatar n tn I currently have upper right back pain which travels to the front of my rib cage. this pain is also accompianed by throbbing pain in both sides of my lower back, and tingling down my right arm. what is the cause of this?
Avatar f tn In about 2003 I was running a marathon and started having upper back pain , just as you described, in that very spot. Long story short...I have a herniated disc @ T-7. This is very unusual from what I understand. It is very painful, every day painful. I am under pain management and it helps some. I have had several rounds of physical therapy to no avail. Have had "nerve burns" and other things with just slight relief. They say surgery is not really an option.
