Specialist will help: Rsi (repetitive stress/strain injury) is usually of the extremity, i've not seen it in the back, however a variety of strain patterns of the back can produce prickly burning sensation. See a musculoskeletal specialist, usually a doctor of osteopathic medicine (D.O.) that specializes in omm (osteopathic manual medicine) or nmm (neuromuscular medicine) with a sports medicine background.
