In my opinion, you should consult an orthopedic surgeon and get detailed evaluation. Treatment will depend on severity of problem. It can include medicines like pain killers and steroids and maybe surgical management for a severe problem.
Meanwhile avoid postures that make it worse. Avoid lifting weights. Avoid prolonged sitting.
