Hi Manolis and thanks for your posting. We tend to describe the spine here (UK/AUS) as C1-C7 (the neck or cervical spine), T1-T12 (the rib caged area of the spine or thoracic spine) and L1-L5 as the lumbar spine or lower back. Can you give us a bit more information about where the pain is for the region referred to as 'A'.
Also can we know your age. and can you tell us if the pain is local to the area, if it radiates and where, the type of pain (burning, aching, tingling, sharp etc) and also what are the main things that ease the pain vs. what has shown to assist (e.g. medication, warmth, cold, massage, rest etc). This will give us a bit more of a clearer picture.
Look fwd to hearing from you.
