Upper Back Pain

Understanding Upper Back Pain

Upper back pain can affect the thoracic spine, shoulders, and surrounding muscles. While less common than lower back pain, it can still cause discomfort, restricted movement, and impact daily activities. Poor posture, injuries, or spinal conditions often contribute to persistent upper back pain.

Common Causes of Upper Back Pain

Upper back pain may develop from injuries, chronic stress, or structural problems. Common causes include:

  • Muscle strain or ligament injuries

  • Poor posture or “tech neck”

  • Herniated or bulging thoracic discs

  • Osteoarthritis or spinal degeneration

  • Scoliosis or spinal curvature issues

  • Nerve compression or inflammation

Symptoms to Watch For

Symptoms of upper back pain vary depending on the cause, but often include:

  • Stiffness or tension across the upper back and shoulders

  • Sharp or dull aching pain

  • Muscle spasms or tightness

  • Pain radiating to the neck, shoulder blades, or arms

  • Numbness, tingling, or weakness in arms or hands

  • Reduced range of motion

Prompt evaluation is recommended if symptoms radiate to arms or interfere with daily activities.
