Spinal bone tenderness on palpation

Question

Asked for Female, 29 Years

Had t-bone car accident at low speed two weeks ago. When GP was checking my neck he palpated my spine. Was tender on one spot between the shoulder blades. That is now gone. Should i be concerned? Ive noticed this tender spot before the accident, myself and during massages ive had regularly in mall. Later had lower back pain (went away) and mid back occasional tenderness (very light) so when i pressed on mid back spine one area was tender but when tried again immediately it was gone. Now no pain
