Now I am experiencing sob when back is tight / painful, very sob, have to sit. I have limited scleroderma, why sob, can this have connection to scleroderma?

Dear- I reviewed your question with care and will try to help you with my medical advise.Scleroderma is a diffuse disease characterized for hardeness of the connective tissue and back. It is a systemic condition which means that can affect any part of the body,including your lungs. You might be having shortness of breath because of this too. The back pain and spasm is probably secondary to the Scleroderma too. I recommend you to see a rheumatologist to evaluate the status of the disease and have xray of the low back too .
I hope that my advise has been helpful
