Hello,
As first-line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedician and plan for an MRI scan to rule out ligament or tendon involvement.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
