Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a a muscle tightness. Tight muscles may result from overuse or cramps, but several treatments and stretches can help. I suggest using muscle relaxant such as Baclofen three times a day. I also suggest using magnesium supplement for muscle relaxation.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
