Upper back pain: Sure it can be spasm, but can be due to many other things, some serious. I had a patient with upper back pain in the ER ended up being an aortic aneurysm, an emergency case, But common things are common. Don't ignore it and go for a full check up. If it is spasm, why? find out how to prevent it. Ergonomics. Posture. Stretch. Adjustments. etc
