Hi, it appears to be the arthritis, or a muscle pain due to a twich. I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
You may need to have an M.R.I. for confirmation.
I to my patients with such symptoms prescribe neurotropic injections besides other medicines, for complete recovery. Thank you.
