Hi there.
Your symptoms could be a part of a more generalised arthritis process.
Kindly get an arthritis panel blood test done centric on uric acid levels.
Kindly also post me the results of the MRI and Xray report .
In the meantime start with tablet naproxen twice daily.
Hot fomentation ang local analgesic gel massage can be continued.
Good luck
