Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, it seems that your symptoms can be due to muscle spasm.
I would advise that you should take rest and avoid heavy weight lifting and bending.
You can take a pain killer like Diclofenac along with a muscle relaxant like Thiocolchicoside for relief from your symptoms. Hot fomentation and local application of pain relieving gel along with physiotherapy will be helpful.
A clinical evaluation by an Orthopaedic surgeon along with an MRI of the area will help in planning your further medical management.
I hope this is helpful to you.
Regards. Thanks.
