Your spine is perhaps one of the most important set of bones in your body. Many other aspects of the body, like its functioning, stability and order, are dependent on it.

When back pain originating from the bottom of the neck portion spreads up to the lumbar spine, it is referred as the upper back pain. Also it is sometimes referred to as thoriac pain or middle back pain.

Treatment of chronic back pain by means of injection is not a new phenomenon in medical science. In fact, the use of injections for the treatment of chronic back pain can be traced back to the beginning of 20th century.

To know the effects of upper back pain on lungs, you should know the
upper back anatomy. The upper back consists of the spinal chord, neck
and shoulders.
|
|
Neck, shoulder and upper back are the areas where there is a complex network of nerves, ligaments, arteries, and veins. They are quite sensitive and prone to sudden bouts of sudden pain.

While upper back pain is not so common, its occurrence brings in with great pain and discomfort which you want to treat for immediate relief.

Upper back is the one of the strongest portions of your back. It is not
easily susceptible to the bad posture problems of sitting, working or
other occupational habits. If you are suffering from upper middle back
pain don't consider the cause to be the same as in case of mid back
pain or lower back pain.

Upper back pain is usually caused by self inflicted problems or bad habits such as sedentary lifestyles with little or no exercise and overexertion of the body. Sitting posture can also become a cause for upper back pain which is usually triggered off by sitting incorrectly either at your desk or at the steering wheel.
|
|
Back pain occurs due to dysfunction of some parts of spine (like joints, muscles, nerves etc.). Due to it the person might feel low and weak.
|
|
The shoulder, like the neck, is a part of upper back. They are
connected with each other and with the spinal chord through some
muscles and ligaments.
|
|
The pain felt between the lower back and the neck is known as upper back pain. This region is also known as thoracic back as it concerns the thoracic region, including the chest and this is where ribs attach.
