Hi,

There’s a possibility of muscle tear/muscle strain while lifting the heavy weight and the chances are more when one does turning movements with the heavy weights. I think a local analgesic cream/ointment along with some oral painkillers and giving some rest to the muscle will be enough to take care of the same.

Nothing serious to worry.

I hope that helps. Pl do keep me posted. Kind Rgds.
