Hello I ve been having a sharp pain in my upper back when I swallow anything. Last Friday I ate something hot and felt it burning while going down and wondered if thay caused it. Or also all last week I was moving heavy stuff from college and wondered if that could cause this as well . what can I do?
Hello. Thanks for writing to us. The pain in the upper back on swallowing anything can be due to an inflammation of the esophagus- esophagitis. This can be decreased by avoiding hot and spicy foods. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
