Hello,

As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief. Nothing much to worry as the symptoms will settle once the stage of inflammation subsides.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
