Minor muscle spasm or sprain liekly.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The mild dull pain that you have is likely to be due to a mild muscular pain may due to exertion or excessive exercise. This can cause minor muscle fiber tears that may need rest and time to heal.
It is best to take rest and a mild pain killer after meals. Do a hot compress in the area and avoid all painful activities. It will gradually subside on its own.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
