Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Rest helps during acute pain...
Start exercise again, when it is less / step up slowly / Over The Counter (OTC) Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID) / muscle relaxants / anxiolytics will be useful in the meanwhile...
Neurological consultation (may be Nerve Conduction / EMG) can help
If not improved, see an Orthopaedician / surgery may at times be necessary
Outcome will be excellent..

Take care     
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
