Brief Answer: Seems to be SOFT TISSUE STRAIN . Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for your query. From the description, I feel that you might have sustained a SOFT TISSUE STRAIN involving your ligaments or tendons. This will generally resolve within few weeks by the following measures - * Rest to the injured part and don't involve in activities which puts additional strain on the injured tissues. * Ice packing should be applied for about 20 minutes once in every 2 hours. * Once the acute pain subsides, Moist heat application over the affected muscles * Local application of muscle relaxant gel * Analgesic & anti inflammatory medications Get an Xray done to ruleout any bony injury I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
