Anyone deal with upper / middle back pain?
Hey ladies! So I started working out November 2025 after taking a year off due to pregnancy (had my baby April 2025) and moving and just life being chaotic. I was religiously in the gym prior and built up a great physique. After I got back into the gym in November I noticed quickly I started dealing with this aching back pain it is always in my upper - middle back sometimes in between my shoulders. It typically happens when I’m doing lateral raises or any exercise really that doesn’t have back support. It goes away once I sit back in a chair or lay down I noticed it as well when I was simply washing the dishes. It’s started to make me really frustrated. I ended up taking time off again in February I took 6 months off thinking it’ll help. Just started going back to the gym 2 weeks ago and the pain is back again. It just feels like an aching pain and it’s starting to piss me off!! I do know I have a an anterior pelvic tilt and I know my core is weak. I’m not sure if that’s related to this pain or what.. I do know my posture isn’t great either so idk if it’s all these things combined and it’s causing it or what. I am working on all of these things to fix them. It’s making me feel defeated though I love working out I want to continue working out. I plan on making a drs appointment to speak with them about it I just wanted to see if anyone else has dealt with this? I miss being in the gym and not having the pain I used to go buck wild in the gym without a single care before I got pregnant and ugh I am really missing those days right now..
