Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to a pulled muscle.
I suggest using a muscle relaxant such as Baclofen three times a day.
I also suggest using a magnesium supplement for muscle relaxation.
I also recommend warm compresses for local application.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
