What Is The Remedy For Severe Back Pain That Is Radiating Towards The Chest?
I am having severe upper back pain that is radiating to my chest and causing discomfort to breath. I have had severe back pain since I was a teenager but only during the last year or so has the pain sometimes radiated to my chest. Is there any cause for concern?
