Hi Dr. My upper back feel very pain everyday when I woke up. I ve consult a Dr and X Ray shows that my backbone is alright. However there s an incidental discover of thing suspect as bladder stone. I ve arrange an appointment for further consultation but it ll take a long while. What can I do at the moment?
I think by upper back pain you mean pain in the thoracic back region, you do not mention your age, the causes are many and investigatins are must, also not if pain is more in day or night, does sleep gets disturbed by the pain, i would recommend an MRI of the dorsal spine with screening of whole spine, take rest, do not lift weights, take tab paracetamol 500 mg three times in a day to reduce pain. the causes of dorsal spine pain ranges from infection to secondaries, and thus getting diagnosed is a must.
