Hello,
I understand your concern. The symptoms seem to be related to the pulled muscle that you mentioned in the query.
I suggest you use anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen 400 my three times a day.
I also suggest you use the anti-inflammatory cream for local application.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
