Suggest Remedy For Pulled Muscle On Lower Gluteus With Pain

I have a lump on my lower gluteus that doctor diagnosed as a pulled muscle. However, the pain is not localized but general for the lower part of my sacrum left and sometimes right. I am 69, overweight but working on diet and exercise and losing....did not pull a muscle. Do swimming and water aerobics. This pain can be walked off but is worse when I wake.

Hello,

It may be due to muscle sprain.

For that you may can take tablet acetaminophen.

Avoid strenuous activity.

Do regular physical therapy.

In case of not getting relief you may require MRI after orthopedic surgeon consultation
