as per your explanation looks like nothing related to previous medical history it may be because of the fall or twist ,soft tissues have got overstretched and due to that you are having pain i recommend you to use hot pack and cold pack frequently in day time to have effect of healing as well as relaxing on your soft tissues i also suggest do not do any activity which aggravate your pain and if possible take rest for 2 to 3 days.
anytime if you feel the pain is increasing in intensity and there is no relief then consult ortho or physiotherapy doctor and take the necessary steps for evaluation like x ray. as well follow the treatment as per the report suggested by ortho. in physiotherapy there is a treatment called ultrasound which can also be helpful for soft tissue healing. consult your physio for this. I hope this will be useful for you. thank you. take care.
