back pain
Hey, i took a break from dancing for a week and when I went back the left area of my mid upper back started hurting after (or maybe it was even during) doing an inversion. its been almost a week and i still feel it and i feel it most when i lift myself with my left arm and i sometimes feel it when i take a deep breath. it kind of feels like my rib might be a little inflamed or something but i am not sure. any clue of what this could be? its not horrible pain, its pretty bearable so im hoping its not a broken bone or anything.

Re: back pain
you probably just pulled something, if it was a broken bone...trust me, you'd know. Take some ibprofin before work and take it easy on the pole tricks for awhile.

Re: back pain
Massage therapist speaking:
Soft tissue injuries are difficult to identify but frankly it doesn't really matter which particular muscle you injured. The treatment would be the same. If you go to the dr's, they will give you RX pain relievers and they may or may not help more than advil or tylenol. Butn you better not drink at work if you take percocet or some such. it will be a bad scene for you.
