What Causes Knot With Moderate Pain And Bruising?

Twice in the last month I have been at work, as a bartender, and suddenly I feel a knot with mild to moderate pain, and significant bruising and tenderness follows. I have no recollection of running into anything, but it is not out of the question. My concern is nothing like this has happened before and now I have done it twice in about four weeks.

hello,
it is common to have knots in people..don't worry so much..
check your posture at work place or when you sleep..this is the most common cause..
diet stress factors also play a role..
take a muscle relaxant (thiocolchicoside ) and NSAID(diclofenac) for three days after food..
this should bring pain and symptoms down..
do stretching exercises..
yoga along with good diet helps you in future..
