Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The symptoms seem to be related to a muscle strain.

I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain.

I also suggest using anti inflammatory cream such as Voltaren cream for local application.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
