Hi,
It may be due to minor sprain or spasm that have been developed during sleep. You can take analgesics/ muscle relaxant combination like Aceclofenac/Baclofen combination for pain relief.
Generally the pain will settled in couple of days. If symptoms persist you can consult an orthopedics and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
