Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Hello,
I think you might have pulled your muscles on right side. It can be due to injury, fall or sudden twisting. I would suggest you to take muscle relaxant like Myoril or cyclobenzapyrine and volitran gel local application along with hot water fomentation.
Thanks
