Thanks for query on HCM.
Most likely it is due to myalgia. (muscular pain ).
It usually occurs due to muscle sprain after improper posture in sleeping,sitting,working.
Start nsaid with muscle relaxant.Apply nsaid gel locally.
B12,folic acid,calcium,vitamin-e,minerals will be helpful.
It will recover within 5 to 7 days after these treatment otherwise go for certain investigations and proper medical management under guidance of orthopedician.
