HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

To allow for healing, you would need to reduce any movements that may aggravate the injury.

In addition to rest, the use of anti inflammatory pain killers such as ibuprofen, cataflam or naproxen.
One of these may help to relieve your discomfort.

I hope this helps
