Hi,
Thanks for your query.
It seems that you had a muscle pull.Take proper rest. Hot fomentation and application of pain relieving gel will give you some relief in pain.
You can take pain killer like Ibuprofen one tablet twice a day after meals withantacid Omeprazole 20 mg along with muscle relaxant like chloraxazone. This will relax the sprained muscles.If the pain persists, get yourself examinned by your doctor

I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
