Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, it seems that you might be having soft tissue injury. But I would suggest that you should get yourself clinically examined and investigated by an Orthopedic surgeon.
I would advise that you should take a painkiller like Ibuprofen twice daily after meals along with an antacid like Omeprazole 40mg once a day before meals.Hot fomentation and application of pain relieving gel locally will be helpful.
It usually takes few weeks for complete healing. Further medical management can be planned according to the clinical evaluation done by your doctor.
I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
