Hello,
It could be a sprain or tendon inflammation.
As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist you can consult an orthopedic and plan for an MRI scan.
Apply icepacks for faster recovery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
