Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern I would explain that your symptoms are not related to any cardiac causes.

So relax and don't worry about it!

Inflammation or a musculoskeletal disorder (including a stretched muscle or muscular cramp) seems to be the main cause of your symptoms.

I would recommend avoiding straining physical activity.

Acetaminophen or ibuprofen would help for the pain.

Hope to have been helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
