57 yr old. hurt thoracic spine area while lifting tables at work. x-ray shows nothing. what could be cause if muscles ok and its been 2 months?

Back pain commonly presents without any underlying spine abnormalities found on xray or MRI. I would discuss various treatment modalities with your primary care doctor (i.e. physical therapy, chiropractic, acupuncture, osteopathic manipulation).
