What causes stabbing pain in upper back?
Patient: my father is 43 years old, he is experiencing back pains, more upper, and it feels like a something sharp stabbing him when he moves. When he raised his left arm, he felt excruciating pain. I thought of sciatica, but nothing is in pain with his thighs or leg areas. What do you think? Doctor: Hi welcome to HcmIt could be due to gall stones.Get an ultrasound abdomen and chest x ray immediately to rule out the disease.thankyou
