Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to myalgia. There are several causes of myalgia such as viral an infection, fibromyalgia etc.
I would recommend using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen three times a day. I also recommend using anti-inflammatory cream for local application. Heat compresses can also be helpful.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
