Hi thanks for contacting HCM...

Here according to history it seems simple musculoskeletal pain.....
Advise ......

You can take simple analgesic for pain.
Hot pad applied.
Avoid strenous activities....
Physiotherapy helpful...
Proper sleep posture needed.
Avoid heavy weight lift.

If still pain remain then we will do further work up...
