Hello,

As per your history it may be due to strain of muscles. You can take tab Acetaminophen to reduce pain. Apply Diclofenac gel locally. You can use heating pads locally for relief.

Do physical exercises and mild stretches to avoid further complications after medical examination and consultation with your physician.

If you do not recover, your doctor may procure an X-ray and computed tomography. Till then keep your self well hydrated. Avoid stress and strain.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thank you.

Regards,
