Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Soreness in the medial aspect of deltoid that you have can be due to a muscle sprain. Twisting, or a sudden movement can cause muscles or ligaments stretch or develop microscopic tears.
This needs rest and mild pain killers for proper healing. You can do a hot compress also to relax the muscle and to make it heal faster. in case the pain is persistent then you can consult your physician and get some oral muscle relaxants prescribed.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
