I have Sjogrens Syndrome and other health concerns. Not too long ago, I had a similar problem. I think I took an xray....some minor concerns were found, but really more along the lines of normal aging.

I ended up taking Soma and going to Physical Therapy for at least two months. I gradually lowered the Soma and knock on wood, the pain stopped.

I also occasionally got a LIGHT massage.

In two months, it was gone .

Wishing you well.
