Hi,

Your symptoms seem to be related to muscles spasms. I suggest using an anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen 400mg to relieve the pain. I also suggest to avoid heavyweight lifting and heavy exercise.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
