Started working out. today sudden upper left back pain when taking deep breath and now hurts when i move/walk. what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Muscle strain: you probably have a muscle strain and spasm from working out It can be painful and sharp It does hurt more with movement Rest it, moist heat, and some advil (ibuprofen) If you get shortness of breath or increased chest pain then followup with ER but I feel that it is just a muscle strain at your age
