Get it checked: It is probably due to muscular pain.You are already taking Tylenol (acetaminophen) and morphine and still hurting.You should get it checked by your PCP You may need Muscle Relaxants after evaluation and may be Nonsteroidals if there is no contraindication.

Different ways to go: If this is sudden onset after sleeping one morning it could be how you slept. Didn't say how long. Depends if trauma. If less than 5 days would apply heat 2 xs daily and do gentle stretching exercises. Taking meds with caution to include Ibuprofen 600 mg 2 xs daily regularly with food for 10 days and watch the stomach. However if other circumstances then need to talk it over with your doctor.
