I am suffering from severe pain in upper back region since last one year, had got myself examined 6 months back by an ortho who suggested X -ray dorsal spine & B27 test. X Ray came out normal & B27 test was negative (normal). The ortho suggested Calcium+VIT D capsules & anti inflammatory (Nucoxia 90 mg -Bd) but I see no relief since last 6 months.
