Hi,
This may be a worsening of your existing problem. I suggest you continue you workouts particularly building up core muscle strength. Low impact exercise such as walking, swimming and cycling may help. Try sleeping on your side with a pillow between your legs. Take paracetamol and ibuprofen for pain and inflammation. If you are spending long hours at your desk, take frequent breaks and walk around if possible.
Hope this helps.
