Traumatic causes
Muscle spasms — in which a muscle tenses and cramps spontaneously — may be acute and they can also appear in a chronic form. If muscle spasms become chronic, they may cause pain and interfere in a person's everyday activities. Muscle spasms generally occur due to the overuse of the muscles, or they are associated with muscle tear and strain.
Structures within the thoracic cavity include:
Muscle Spasms of the Thoracic Spine That means a spasm may not only affect the neck, but the middle of your back as well. Spasms in the midback area can also result from a contraction of the rhomboid muscle, which connects the shoulder blades to the rib cage and spine.

The thoracic spine is located in the upper and middle part of the back. Twelve vertebrae are located in the thoracic spine and are numbered T-1 to T-12. Each number corresponds with the nerves in that section of the spinal cord: T-1 through T-5 nerves affect muscles, upper chest, mid-back and abdominal muscles.
Your thoracic spine is the middle section of your spine. It starts at the base of your neck and ends at the bottom of your ribs. It's the longest section of your spine. Your thoracic spine consists of 12 vertebrae, labeled T1 through T12.
The majority of the vertebral column movements are produced by an extensive set of muscles, that run all the way along the back of the spine. They're known collectively as the paraspinal muscles. The paraspinal muscles are also a component of the: Core Muscles; Back Muscles (minus psoas).
The most common cause of thoracic back pain is inflammation of the muscles or soft tissues of the thoracic spine. This inflammation can occur for a number of reasons: A sudden sprain or strain (as in car accidents or sports injuries). Sitting or standing in a slouched position over time.
