Any Suggestion For Chest Pain On Right Side And Back Muscle Spasms?
I am having chest pains on my right side near the breast plate. When I bend over it becomes much worse. When I press on the area I seem to feel some tenderness. I am currently experiencing back muscle spasams as I recently has a Rizotomy and I think I over did it. So far this has lasted two days. Do you have any ideas? I am 54 years old.

Hi,
Probably the problem is due to rhizotomy only where the nerves are not completely severed. Also, the possibility is that the nerve endings are irritated.
I suggest you start some medicine to blunt the effect of nerves. It might take some months before you feel better.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
