Upper pain: Neck and upper back pain can most of the time arise from the small joints in the cervical spine (facet joints). The muscles of the upper back cause pain to radiate to the shoulders. Facet joint injections for short term and radio-frequency procedure for long term is very effective, but must be done properly by a properly trained physician.
