Thoracic pain can be dull, sharp, mild, severe, and sometimes it can feel like a burning sensation, and can also reduce your spinal range of motion.
Gentle exercises that focus on strengthening and stabilizing and decompressing the back are recommended to relieve pain caused by herniated discs.
Some exercises and stretches to try for mid back pain relief include various Yoga poses, as well as exercises that decompress the spine.
The human spine consists of three main regions: the lumbar spine – corresponding to the lower back, the thoracic spine – corresponding to the middle of the back, and the cervical spine – corresponding to the neck. Middle back pain occurs in the thoracic spine, covering 12 vertebrae labelled T1 to T12.
Back pain in the younger generation is usually not something to worry about. However, if it’s persistent or if it keeps coming back, you might want to investigate the issue further.
