HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it could be spasm of muscle because of cough although it comes around on its own and if not then you can try Tab Chlorzoxazone with Acetaminophen once in day, symptom should not long last else it need to be investigated hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
