Suggest Treatment For Extreme Upper Back Pain
I had to leave work today due to extreme pain in my upper -mid back on my left side. My doctor checked my urine and said it is perfectly clean. She says this pain is due to inflamed muscles that are spasming. I have taken two 750 mg methocarbamols and am currently icing my side/ back area. The pain is terrible. Is this consistent with back spasms?

Hi,
Thank you for providing the brief history. As this is due to the inter-scapular muscle spasm and needs some hot water fermentation and simple strengthening exercises along with posture correction.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
