A member asked:
I have had extremely tight back muscles for sometime now and now im getting painful muscle spasm all in the upper back (tightness and spasms) what can i do about this?? i have neck degeneration and scoliosis also bad anxiety

Tight muscles: First consult an orthopedic specialist to determine what conditions predispose you to do much muscle tightness and spasms and then get treatment options for each one. Can scoliosis be corrected? What treatment is best for your neck degeneration? Is chronic tension a factor and would stress management help? Physical or massage therapy could help. Stretching helps. Muscle relaxants can be prescribed
