What precipitated the pain? Was there traumatic injury? Depending on the underlying cause, improving muscle strength and flexibility can take weeks if not months. However, exercise and PT is an appropriate approach. You may take pain relief like, acetaminophen, no more than 4 g/day and no alcohol. Wish you good health!
