Hello,
It may be due to muscle sprain. For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen. Apply diclofenac gel or ointment locally. Heating pads may help. Avoid strenuous activity. In case of not getting relief you may require physician consultation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
