I had a neck pain three months back and it subsided on its own. Now for the past one month it has recurred and spread to my upper back currently I am experiencing severe stiffness in my upper back. I am a diabetic and have tested sugar levels and hb1ac with each done in last month. All normal. Xray too normal Ortho did physio sessions and met neuro too in the last week and am under medication. Still pain won't go away. Its hampering my daily work life. I am 32 now and a diabetic for 8 yrs.
