Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your pain is due to overstretching/pulling of the muscle during the heavy lifting.
Chest X-Ray will help to find other injury.
Take following advises.
Just take rest and avoid activity that increase the pain.
Apply warm pad application
Tablet orthodol three times a day for 5 days, tablet rantac
wear elastic crepe to support the movement and reduce the pain
Apply local volini gel
Do not lies in the right side.
