No: typical inflammation from a new bed and the new job you can see provider for an anti inflammatory or therapy The truth is that is will take some time to build up the muscles and limit the pain Keep working to build up muscle tone

Muscle sprains: Hi, That sounds like a tough way to wake up! It's very common to have pain where you describe after starting new physical activities. If it doesn't improve or is getting worse, or associated with any other problems like weakness or headaches, I would be sure to see your regular physician.
