Hi,
If your pain arises during physical activity for example climbing stairs, then you should see a doctor to rule out heart problems. If it changes with movements, with position, and becomes worse on palpation, then most probably it is a neuromuscular pain, in this case take Ibuprofen 400mg three times a day, if it doesn't disappear in three days or Ibuprofen doesn't work at all, then see a doctor.
Take care
