Apply icing to the part of the muscle. Give it a rest for some days and slowly move the joint. For further queries contact your nearest Physiotherapist for help.

Hi, the muscle strain your having is quite common. Usually this area becomes tender or swollen. Application of ice for atleast 3-5 times a day in small circular motion helps to reduce the swelling if present. Usage of pillow while sitting in an upright position is necessary to reduce the pain. Exercises needs to be stopped for a period of time so that the muscle is not disturbed.
