If you have localized pain with no s/s of any inflammation or infection like swelling, skin redness, local warmth on touch etc, I will advise you to start with: - intensive physical therapy initially under supervision of a physical therapist and then at home - you can take short course of anti inflammatory medication like tab etoshine on sos basis especially when there is an episode of pain, swelling etc. - adequate calcium & vitamin d intake if levels are low in body - ice packs can applied if your pain is acute, then hot fomentation can be done at home - analgesic spray for local application like dynapar qps spray can be used and is easily available. We will observe you for a period of around 10-14 days, and if your symptoms are not subsiding, then I will advise you some investigations.
