Suggest remedy for pain in upper back and while breathing deeply

Brief Answer:
Antibiotics, only if there is a focus of infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern

Based on your description, unless there is evidence of an infective focus, antibiotics will not be beneficial or needed for that matter. A chest X ray should be advised after examination of your chest/back by your doctor. If there is consolidation that suggests pneumonia, lung abscess or tuberculosis then treatment can be advised accordingly. If the chest X ray is clear and the pain persists then a CT scan of the chest can be advised to have a better idea of the cause. Meanwhile NSAIDs or local nerve block can be advised empirically to prevent atelectasis associated with painful/difficult breathing.

Wishing you best of health

Thanks
