Hi helen
six weeks is way too long for a pulled
muscle to continue to ache. My
recommendation is to return to your doctor
for a thorough reexamination of the region
and if necessary some imaging studies to
follow up with. Its hard for me to give
specifics without knowing more of the
history of the injury.
