Hi,
What I understand by the history is this is not muscular. Because if it was muscular it would have subsided by Maximum of 7 days. Since it didn't send persisting from 2 months I would like to say that this could be a trouble caused related to spine.
Why don't you just get it examined physically by a orthopedist. Because I feel the symptoms sounds such of a nerve entrapment. Usually nerve entrapment has either of the symptoms like - pain, numbness, tingling, motor weakness etc.
We have to consider a lot of differential diagnostic conditions before coming to conclusion. So I really want to say this is my perception to the history you provided.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
