Hi,

Your history suggests an extra stress to muscles. It would get reduced over time with avoiding painful movements & anti-inflammatory pills over the counter.

Commonly, Appendicitis pain is located in lower right part of abdomen & is associated with pain, inflammation, fever & vomiting. In case your symptoms simulate these symptoms. Please see a surgeon to get it excluded with needful treatment.

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

Regards,
