General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to a pinched nerve.

I recommend using anti-inflammatory medication to relieve symptoms such as Ibuprofen.

I also recommend maintaining the area immobilized for better relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
