I've had a pressure/discomfort pain in my back on the right side, midway down the back. spasm/twitching feeling, been taking prilosec for heartburn?

Abominal evaluation: Many times pain radiating to the mid back can be a result of problems in the abdomen. These problems can include ulcers, reflux, colitis, and gallbladder problems . People with mid back pain without trauma should consider an evaluation by their family doctor.
