Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Pain And Tenderness In The Upper Back?
I have progressive pain in my left upper back. It is localized and tender to touch, but seems to be increasing. I am on Prednisone for poison ivy, so cannot take an anti-inflammatory right now. I took Tylenol XS today but that does not seem to help. I have not had any muscle strain or unusual exercise that would have caused this pain.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, it is the muscular spasm and nothing could be anything else if I would be doctor of this case then I would suggest Tab Chlorzoxazone with Acetaminophen three times in day, try to maintain proper posture during sleep local muscle relaxant can be tried hope this information helps.
