Detailed Answer:
Hello

My name is Dr Muhammad Ali Rauf & i will look into your problem.

I have gone through your query and would try to help you in the best possible way. There is high possibility that pain is hormonal/muscular pain which could be as a coincident with embryo implant. If i were your treating doctor then i would have advised following things:

- Naproxen thrice a day for 5 days
- take hot water in a rubber bottle and place it at the site of pain. It will give soothing effect.
- avoid doing sternous activity.
- do not lift heavy weight.
- oil massage of lower back will also help.
Hopefully you will see an improvement in 3-4 days BUT if condition remains same or aggravates then you need to visit hospital for further workup.


Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!
