Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns

With such presentations in my clinic, I would first reassure you as this pain is mostly muscle spasm in pectoralis major muscle.
I advise you to use warm fomentation,muscle relaxant and topical analgesic cream.
