Suddenly Having Soreness In The Middle Back. Hard Time Standing, Sneezing, Deep Breathing. What Could It Be?
Hi: I woke up around 5am this morning and all was well. I went back to sleep until 730 and when I woke my middle back was extremely sore. I have a hard time standing straight up and I was unable to sneeze . I can walk around for a bout a minute, but when I try to take a deep breath it gets real sore again. I ve never had any symptoms or back pain in this area before.

Hello and welcome
The problem can be due to muscular spasm. Try Ice and hot fermentation and take complete rest till he pain subsides.
Apply local anti-inflammatory gel at the site.
Take analgesic and and anti-inflammatory drug to reduce pain.
Use hard bed to sleep.
If pain persist for more than 2 days feel free to consult your doctor and get your X-ray done.
Best Wishes and get well soon.
