Cardiologist, Dr. Ilir Sharka's Response

Hello,

Your symptoms are related to a twisted muscle. I would recommend using local warm packs and taking ibuprofen for the pain. If the situation persists, I would recommend taking a muscle relaxer (flexeril) in order to help correct the position.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
