Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If the pain is persistent for more than one month, without delay, you should consult a physician. Physician will check you for general problems and if necessary refer to a bone specialist. Do not self treat or self medicate.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
