Hi.
The soreness to touch is necessarily due to tear of small nerve endings. This is usually self-limiting but can take a real long time.
You may still wait as there is no definite treatment for such sores.
If the soreness is more than bearable , you may take medicines under the care and prescription of a Doctor.
