Hi,
We have to rule out conditions like bursitis.
As the first line management, you can take analgesics like Aceclofenac or Tramadol for pain relief.
If symptoms persist you can consult an orthopedician and plan for an MRI scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
