Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
From description it seems to be due to muscle spasm.You need stretching exercises to relieve the spasm. Doing hot fomatation and applying muscle relaxant gel will be helpful.
Hope this will helps you. Feel free to ask me if you have any further queries.
Wish you good health. Take care.

Hello,
Most probably the pain may be a musculoskeletal pain.
Because it is aggravated due to postural changes.
In this case you may need rest and avoid the postures which are painful.
Analgesics may help in relieving the pain.
You may need X ray of the area.
