Hi,when you fell down to save your child you might have excessive stressed you muscles but before telling its muscular pain its better to take xray of the chest and hip and knee as you are complaining pain in those places muscular pain is a diagnosis of exclusion when you dont have fractures,there will be 3 main signs of fracture swelling,pain and the restriction of movements if u have any of this symptoms better to xray that part

Females usually have this kind of pain because of other reasons also. oateporosis,low calcium lavles

It will be better to consult the orthopedician as soon as possible
