Mid Back Pain
What is Mid Back Pain?
Mid back pain, also known as thoracic spine pain, occurs in the area between the base of your neck and the bottom of your rib cage. This region is essential for stability and movement, connecting your upper and lower body. Mid back pain can range from mild discomfort to severe, chronic pain that affects your daily life.
At ActiveCare Physiotherapy & Rehab, we specialize in diagnosing and treating mid back pain with a multidisciplinary approach, helping you regain strength, mobility, and comfort.
Why Does Mid Back Pain Occur?
Common in those with poor posture or repetitive motion injuries.
Sitting or standing improperly for extended periods can strain the thoracic spine.
Although less common in the mid-back, displaced discs can still cause significant pain.
Degeneration of the joints in the thoracic spine can lead to stiffness and pain.
Accidents or sudden impacts can damage muscles, ligaments, or vertebrae.
Issues such as osteoporosis or scoliosis can contribute to mid back pain.
Understanding the cause of your pain is essential for effective treatment.
