Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.

There is a possibility that pain is muscular in nature. If i were your treating doctor then i would have advised following things:

- Drotaverine thrice a day for 3 days.
- Take hot water in a rubber bottle and place it at the site of pain. It will give soothing effect.
- Avoid lifting heavy weight

Report to hospital if:
> Condition remain same after 2-3 days
> Any unusual symptom appears
> Condition deteriorates.


Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow
