Brief Answer:
Probably yes

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome. Yes, your symptoms are suggesting pulled muscle since in case of other issues your pain would not be related to pressure or movement. I suggest to rest for few days, take non steroid painkillers and apply cold compresses. Wish you good health. Regards
