Yes in Thoracic Area: This chronic pain in the distribution as you suggested is the result of an irritated nerve or facet joints or other injury typically in the low thoracic or high lumbar spine areas which are caused by herniated disks, spinal stenosis or degenerative disc disease, etc requiring further evaluation by a spine specialist.
