I Have Pain In Left Side Of My Upper Back. Which Doctor Should Consult
UpdatedSometimes I have pain in one part my head and it increases to be chronic and after sometime it affects my eyes also. It remains the same till I wake up in the morning. This happens regularily every 2-3 weeks and sometimes after 1 month also. Since past 3-4 days I have pain in left part of my upper back also. Are these both related.
I have already consulted opthalmologist 2-3 times thinking that headache might be because of eye weakness.
Please tell me which kind of doctor should I consult?

I think you were doing the right thing by consulting an opthalmologist first, considering the location of your pain. I have a hunch that it may be nerve related since you're experiencing back pain as well, but please don't take this as definitive information, as I am not a doctor.
You may want to consult a neurologist as a last resort, but I'm thinking the pain may also be due to how you sit or bend over (if you do so frequently), depending on your lifestyle or how active you are.
If there's anyway you can get X-rays or an MRI to help pinpoint the underlying cause of it, that would probably be my next mode of action after consulting a neurologist. In the meantime it may be helpful to juice plenty of carrots and do light to moderate exercise in order to strengthen your eyesight & back muscles. If could even come down to your dietary habits and how certain foods might be affecting your body.
I hope this info helps!
