Upper back pain
I have been experiencing an upper back paim from past 4 months or so. This is not a constant pain and it only occurs randomly. I feel like there is a stinging sensation in my upper back towards the side, this surely does not seem like a regular back problem to me. Does the posture come into consideration here?

Yeah definitely If you sit with unsupported back for longer time it does cause fatigue and upper back pain Get a orthopaedic opinion regarding Ergonomics and basic exercise to keep yourself fit Try to sleep for 7-8 hours in night
