welcome to hcm,
Nothing to worry gentleman, everything will be alright.
first you had a complete rest for 3 months
now you cannot expect to lift up the same weights you lifted before.
have a warm up session before starting your weight lifting.
start from very less weights.
don't increase all of a sudden.
pain is better managed by applying NSAID gels external application.
i don't recommend you for a oral NSAID pain relievers
if you have still pain there is a chance of ligament tear. if you too feel so
take a MRI.
ligament injury is best seen in MRI scan.
review with the MRI results
hope this explains
