It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, and physical examination. If your symptoms are improving, you may watch and wait. You may take acetaminophen for pain, no more than 3 g/day, no alcohol. If the symptoms are not improving, it would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!
