Pretty severe upper right back pain, hurts to even take a breath. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not normal: Your back is the back part of your chest. If you are having pain with breathing you should be evaluated by a physician to exclude the serious causes of those symptoms. Hopefully it will turn out to be a bad muscle spasm, but it is best to be safe.
