See your physician: There are many causes including trauma, prolonged immobility, muscle overuse, inflammatory or rheumatological condition, etc. See your physician for a complete evaluation and physical exam, especially because of the progressive nature that you have described. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003178.htm

Visit the doctor: Where exactly is the pain? How long has this been going on? Are you doing anything strenuous? Any other changes like weight loss, fever, rashes or other changes? I would recommend seeing the doctor to do a full evaluation.
