Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It could be a muscular pain, as a first line management you can try simple analgesics like Ibuprofen and Diclofenac. Anti inflammatory drugs like Serratiopeptidase can also be added. If pain persist for longer period, better to take an MRI scan and get evaluated.
Wishing you good health.
Thanks
