Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this severe pains that you have reported. I understand how inconveniencing this must have been coupled with the sleepless nights. severe pains are best managed in the short run with excellent pain medications. This would probably need the use of powerful pain medications like morphine to make sure you get the relief needed right now. This will gain some time and allow the injury to be investigated and managed accordingly. There are good enough pain medications that can adequately address any pains and you deserve to get them for relief while the problem is being investigated and addressed.
I will suggest that you go the the emergency room right now to get this pain evaluated and the medications prescribed. You may need to get an xray and maybe a ct/mri scan to best visualize these structures and any possible injuries.
In all, get pain medications and some basic test to pinpoint the problem. This will ensure instant relief and gain time to address the problem for longterm benefits.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for clarification and more information if need be.
