HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, it is 36 weeks running, if the pain is severe then this can be treated with "Tab Diclofenac 50 mg once in day, if you could bear the pain then no need to take any medicine, it is advisable to avoid NSAID (Non-steroid Anti-inflammatory Drug ) as long as it is possible, hope this information helps, take care.
