I have had various types of pain and I like to completely stop using the affected limb to give it time to heal, i.e. arm sling, picking up my leg to move it etc.. I find that is extremely helpful, and I only take pain meds if I'm not able to sleep. Otherwise the pain signals are necessary to prevent me from tweaking it further. Patience is key, as well as getting good tests done to know what is hurt, if it persists too long. Good luck!
