Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain in the muscles after the exercise can be due to an excessive strain on the muscles without adequate warming up. Rest, hot fomentation, pain killers and muscle relaxants will help in relieving the pain.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
