Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The dull aching pain that you are having is likely to be due to a soft tissue injury. Usually adequate rest, hot fomentation and mild pain killers are needed to take care of the mild symptoms. This should subside in next 7-10 days.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
