Upper and middle back pain may be caused by: 1  Overuse, muscle strain, or injury to the muscles, ligaments, and discs that support your spine. 2  Poor posture. 3  Pressure on the spinal nervesspinal nerves from certain problems, such as a herniated disc.  A fracture of one of the vertebrae.
However, upper back pain is most often due to muscle irritation or joint problems and is usually not a cause for concern. Upper back pain occurring with other symptoms, such as chest pain or difficulty breathing, may be a sign of a heart attack and should be immediately evaluated in an emergency setting.
