Good morning, ma'am,
It is impossible to know for sure what is causing the pain without a physical evaluation. For the time being, I suggest taking acetaminophen (Tylenol and other brands), or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin and other brands, if you have no contraindications to taking them, your pharmacist will be able to confirm this) for pain relief.
If the situation persists or worsens, you should consult a physician so as not to delay the proper treatment, if any.
I hope I've been helpful, I'm available if you have any further questions!
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
