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 Recurrent Burning Sensation In Upper Back, Shoulders And Chest?
I have a regular occurance of a burning compression-like discomfort in upper back, shoulders extending down through my elbows as well as in chest .....this has been going on for about six years now...generally passes in a few minutes....most frequently occurs after driving...but not limited to that...often when I get out of bed in the morning...any thoughts? I have been x-rayed for spinal stability (at least that s what I think it was for) and I appear to be stable throughout the spine
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, it is advisable to get done the MRI of dorsal spine although could be suggestive of poor posture consequences so try to maintain best posture, it could be muscular spasm if I would be doctor of this case then I would advise Tab Chlorzoxazone 40 mg one in day, hope this information helps.
