Brief Answer:
Monitor only for now. Take tylenol for relief!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this pain. I have reviewed this information fully and there is no immediate red flags to be worried about. The nature of this pain seems to be related more to a soft tissue. If you are concerned about a possible heart pain, this is unlikely as heart pain would rather be more prominent during exercise and not at rest. For now, seen the nature and the short duration of this pain, I will suggest that you take tylenol and observe only. Unless something else comes up, there is no reason to be worried. Keep me posted with the evolution.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
