Brief Answer:
It can be due to muscular sprain.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, it seems that your symptoms might be due to muscular sprain. It can be due to wrong posture or over exertion of the muscles.
I would advise that you can take a pain killer like Ibuprofen along with a muscle relaxant like Thiocolchicoside twice daily after meals along with Omeprazole 20 mg to be taken once a day.
Hot fomentation along with local application of pain relieving gel will have added benefits.
If the symptoms persists, get yourself clinically examined and investigated by your doctor. Take any medication after discussing with your doctor.
Take rest and avoid bending posture and lifting heavy loads.
I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
