Brief Answer:
Possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more in your case.
So better to avoid movements causing pain.
Avoid bad postures in sleep.
Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise.
Start painkiller and muscle relaxant drugs.
Apply warm water pad on affected areas.
You will mostly improve in 1-2 weeks.
If not improving then get done chest x ray and ecg to rule out Pulmonary and cardiac cause respectively.
Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
