I Have A Burning Pain In My Upper Back And Burning In My Chest, Inside Body Heat Like Sensation

I have a burning pain in my upper back and burning in my chest, like an “inside body heat” sensation. I’ve had tests, but they were all normal. What could it be?

Answer

Hi there, aida -

Did you ever find out what was causing this pain and burning sensation? If you did, it might be really helpful to our other community members if you came back and told us what the diagnosis and treatment for it was. Just off the cuff (as I am not a healthcare professional) it sounds like it could be nerve pain, something related to a disc, muscle issues, or the type of pain that sometimes comes with fibromyalgia. I hope your doctor was able to get to the bottom of it and get you some relief!
