Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
By your history and description, possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more likely. So follow these steps for better symptomatic relief in musculoskeletal pain.
1. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise.
2. Avoid sudden jerky movements of chest.
3. Apply warm water pad on affected areas of chest.
4. Take simple painkiller like Paracetamol or Ibuprofen.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
