Should I Be Concerned About My Leg Pain Caused Due To Moving Furniture?

Today was moving furniture to new location. Since then the right leg is having severe pain above the knee. The muscle feels tight and cramped.
There was no pain while moving the furniture from 7:30AM to 4:30PM
Once we were finished, and I sat in the truck passenger seat the pain in my hip was really bad. This lasted for an hour or two.
When we arrived back home I could hardly walk for awhile. Then the pain went away for awhile.
Now while laying in bed the pain in my right leg is really severe. It is now subsiding now. The muscle is relaxing.
My husband wanted to take me to the hospital when it was really bad. It is past now.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain in the leg that you are having is most likely to be a muscular pain. Such pains usually subside in 4-5 days after hot fomentation, application of local analgesic gel and oral muscle relaxant.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
