A member asked:
Sharp pain in top of back with movement after waking up and wont go away after trying to stretch...could it be pneumonia or a lung problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible, not likely: Your symptoms are suggesting a musculoskeletal root for the pain, but a lung condition cannot be ruled out, it is only less likely. If symptoms do not fade away in few days, would suggest an exam with your doc in order to figure out proper management.
