MUSCLE STRAIN OF THE UPPER BACK (TRAPEZIUS STRAIN)
This common injury of the upper back is a stretching or tearing of the trapezius. This large muscle group spans the upper back, shoulders and neck. Trapezius strains are commonly due to the overuse of muscles. Working at a keyboard or driving for extended periods, cradling a phone between the ear and shoulder, carrying a heavy bag can cause trapezius pain. These muscles are also commonly injured during weightlifting or any contact sports.
