I recently have been experiencing a pain in the upper portion of my back it feels like a burning sensation?

Question

when I sit in a chair and just lean forward I feel it,could it be a tear of some sort ,it is very uncomfortable.It feels like it is stinging.

Answer 1

Sounds like a torn shoulder muscle. There are several that connect very close to your spine. Take a relaxing bath or rest it.

Answer 2

Peripheral neuropathy.

Peripheral neuropathy describes damage to the peripheral nervous system, the vast communications network that transmits information from the brain and spinal cord (the central nervous system) to every other part of the body. Peripheral nerves also send sensory information back to the brain and spinal cord, such as a message that the feet are cold or a finger is burned. Damage to the peripheral nervous system interferes with these vital connections. Like static on a telephone line, peripheral neuropathy distorts and sometimes interrupts messages between the brain and the rest of the body.

The burning sensation gave it away! Give it time and it will go, if not see a Doctor. Best of Luck
