Brief Answer:
Muscle pain likely.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain you have can be a muscular pain as it aggravates with change in posture. Mild pain killers hot compress and local analgesic gel can help in reducing the pain. Regular physiotherapy will help in reducing recurrence of such pains. You can get oral muscle relaxants prescribed from an orthopedician in case the pain is persistent.
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.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
