Ate 4 deviled eggs made with mushrooms. my upper back hurts when i take deep breath ths?

Mid back pain: Eating deviled eggs are likely unrelated to the upper back when taking deep breaths. The pain you describe is where the rib head inserts on the spine. The rib head may have become inflamed or mal positioned. Alternatively, you have strained muscle or tendons on the spine itself. See a back specialist or a chiropractor to evaluate and treat the problem.
