HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, what the history and symptoms are given here could be suggestive of muscular spasm and it can be treated with tab Chlorzoxazone once in day, if it is not the swelling or infection then local application or rubefacient can be tried, if the pain persistence even after that then better to get done the x-ray of chest, hope this information helps.
