Twisted Torso, Back Pain Near Armpit, Unable To Sit In Certain Positions. Pulled Muscle?

I was playing arm wrestling in school, and instead of getting into a more comfortable position, I just turned around in my chair and played, with my torso twisted. It started hurting and i gave up the game. Now on the left side of my back near my armpit, it hurts. I can t sit certain ways, because it hurts. I have to sit slouched away from the pain. it s really uncomfortable. Did I pull a muscle?
