Muscle strain: You could be unconditioned. You may have simply too much tension on one side versus the other. You r spine could be misaligned contributing. Consider a massage and or a chiropractic visit for evaluation. Ask around for a chiropractor referral. If the pain radiates anywhere (goes up or down your back, a herniated disc could be the problem. See your doctor if that is the case.
