They are generally felt as a tight, cramping, or sharp pulling sensation in the lumbar region or the lower back.

Lower back spasms can also be brought about by weak core muscles or sitting for long hours.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Muscle_Spasm_in_Upper_Back\"><\/span><b>Muscle Spasm in Upper Back<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Spasms occur in muscles around the shoulder blades, neck, or mid-back, especially in the trapezius, rhomboids, or muscles of the upper spine. Stress, sitting at a desk too long, looking down at your phone, and even sleeping in an awkward position are some of the more common culprits causing an upper back spasm.
