What do middle back muscle spasms feel lie?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Pain and tightness: The back muscles get tight and it is tough to move secondary to pain. If you stretch and put some warmth on this area of the back, it will help. Massage also helps. It can be associated with exertion, emotional stress or just being out of shape.
