What Causes Chronic Right Sided Mid Back Pain?

I am having some severe mid back pain on the right side. Like a muscle spasm although I have not done anything strenuous. It interferes with breathing and movement. Just trying to get an idea of what it might be or anything I can do to minimize the pain. I am afraid to move

Hi i am Dr Ahmed Aly
thanks for using healthcaremagic site ,
I had gone through your question and understand your concerns ..

In my opinion you have a sort of a muscular spasm or radiating pain due to nerve compression . in mild cases of sciatica low back pain may be resolved simultaneously or with relaxation .
For my patient i may suggest advil tab when needed , hot massages with topical gels , B12 vitamin supplementation with some physiotherapy and spinal straightening exercises and even yoga will be helpful.
If pain persists i recommend MRI to rule any spinal disc herniation for proper evaluation and management .

Please click and consider a 5 star rating with some positive feedback if the information was helpful. Wish you good health,
Any further clarifications feel free to ask.
