Brief Answer:
Most likely muscle spasms at back

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to HCM.

The most likely cause of one sided upper back pain can be due to muscular spasm alone and seems unrelated to your breast soreness. For the upper back spasm you may get hot fomentation done thrice a day for 15 min each and take an NSAID like paracetamol TAB SOS.
The sore breast can be possibly due to hormonal chances as in mid cycle and can also be relieved with Evening primrose oil caps taken twice a day for awake, unless there has been some lumps in breasts which shall need further examination by your physician to rule out fibroadenoma or benign cysts.

Hope this helps.
Regards
