Burning back pain that moves around â upper, lower, middle, and shoulders â over 3 months, at your age of 30, is far more likely to be due to musculoskeletal causes, nerve irritation, or even referred pain from your Grade 3 fatty liver, rather than anything cancer-related. Cancer causing back pain at 30 is very rare and would typically be associated with other symptoms like significant weight loss, night sweats, or a lump. Your pain pattern is more consistent with muscle tension, postural issues, or a nerve-related cause.
Next Steps
Please consult me directly on Practo for a detailed evaluation so I can assess this properly and guide you on the right investigations.

The fact that your symptom is pain, at varying regions of the back is honestly a reassuring sign. Cancers are silent normally.
You are 30, another reassuring sign. Normally not the risk category for cancers. What then could this be? A muscular stretch? Are there any superficial skin lesions? May be a neurological glitch? A physical injury?
Next Steps
In my opinion what you should be concerned about at the age of 30 is your Grade 3 fatty liver. That's something you should be addressing head on. It will become a reason for many gastro related issues and affect your health overall. It also compels me to wonder about your existing lifestyle and food choices and routines.

Hi, burning pain is rarely cancer at your age. 😊
It can be due to issues like B12 deficiency, sciatica, muscle strain, or related to fatty liver or acidity.
Continue Sompraz, improve posture ,diet, and get B12 levels checked for clarity.
Feel free to consult for further guidance. 👍

*Most common reasons for burning back pain*
1. *Nerve-related/musculoskeletal causes* - By far the most common. Includes:
- *Pinched nerve/radiculopathy*: From disc issues or spinal stenosis. Causes burning pain that comes and goes, can shift between upper/mid/lower back and shoulders.
- *Muscle strain or myofascial pain*: Often feels like burning, worse with certain movements, improves with rest.
- *Shingles nerve pain*: Can cause burning before any rash appears, comes in waves.
2. *Acid reflux/GERD related* - You’re on Sompraz 40, which is for acid reflux. GERD can cause burning pain in the upper/middle back and between shoulders. If reflux isn’t fully controlled, this could explain it.
3. *Fatty liver grade 3* - Usually doesn’t cause burning back pain directly. But severe fatty liver with inflammation can cause upper right abdominal pain that radiates to back/shoulder.
*About cancer concern:*
While burning back pain _can_ rarely be from spinal or pancreatic cancer, it’s *not the most common cause* - especially when pain comes and goes for 3 months and shifts location. Cancer pain is typically constant, progressive, worse at night, and associated with weight loss, fever, or other symptoms. Musculoskeletal and nerve issues are thousands of times more common.
*What you should do:*
This needs proper evaluation because it’s been 3 months and you have grade 3 fatty liver. Only a doctor who examines you can rule out serious causes and find the real reason.
*See a healthcare professional soon* for:
- Physical exam of spine and nerves
- Blood tests: LFT, amylase/lipase, ESR/CRP
- Imaging if needed: MRI spine or ultrasound
Next Steps
*Red flags to seek urgent care*:
Constant pain not relieved by rest, unexplained weight loss, fever, weakness/numbness in legs, trouble controlling bladder
Health Tips
Because grade 3 fatty liver and 3 months of symptoms are involved, speaking with a doctor to get examined is the safest next step.
