Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to fibromyalgia. I suggest to try an over the counter anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen. If the symptoms continue you should get prescription painkillers such as Gabapentin.You should consult a neurologist for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
