Beti, sometimes lung pain, it also shows in the back. It's usually high up, around your shoulder blades, on one side or both. When you breathe deep, or cough, it hurts more. It's not like the back pain from working all day. If you feel it, tell the doctor, okay?
Yes, lung pain can definitely be felt in the back! It usually presents as a dull ache or a sharp pain in the upper or mid-back, between the shoulder blades, and often worsens with deep breathing or coughing. I've heard of people confusing it with simple back pain. While some home remedies help general aches, for something like this, a doctor's visit is essential.
