What Causes Pricking Pain On Spine?
I have a tiny pin prick pain in a tiny area on skin on my spine. Very difficult to locate. When I find it, it feels like a bruise or as if it only hurts if I am moving a single hair follicle. I ve had the sensation in this tiny area for 2 years but it seems to be more irritating at the moment. What could be the cause? Could my bra fastening be doing something. It started when I was sitting around a lot recovering from pneumonia. I am 59.

hi,
this sensation in this area is the interscapular region. the muscles in this region goes weak and later it leads to changes in the spinal column as the nerves gives different signaling to the muscles via the nerves. so for this I wish you do some exercises for the upper back region and I wish you get rid of this irritating factor
