background

I have been suffering upper back pain for a couple of months. The pain aggravates during sleep and it remains stable during daytime. I don't feel any pain during daytime. But today, after taking a sunbath for 1 hour, the pain grew much stronger. I have become really upset as the whole of my body started aching. I have not taken any medicines or consulted with any doctors yet. My diabetes and blood pressure are normal. I have not faced any accident nor have I hit my back with anything. Are my morning exercises not good? Could it be due to sleeping on a mattress? Please suggest what I should do?
