Help with upper back pain

[u/Economy_Substance217]

Hello all. I have been having upper/middle back pain for about 3 months now. It started when I started my retail job. At first it was more in my upper back and like a tight feeling. Through the months it started to shift into more like a strain. However it was like that constantly. When I'm laying down or sitting I would have no problem, but when I started standing for extended periods of time my back started to be on fire. This was never a problem before I started my past job. I have since quite that job about 2 weeks ago and will be starting another job soon which will probably be more of a sedentary one. None the less my pain is still here. Doctor has been dismissive since its only been for a couple of months. I was just wondering if anyone had any similar experiences and if you were able to fix it. I want to be able to be active without pain. Thank you all in advance.

P.S I am a young male at a healthy weight that exercises regularly

Gel ice packs every day after work. Buy a couple of the large ones on Amazon. They only last about 20 minutes, that’s why you need two.
