Muscle Strain
I have a muscle strain for last 2/3 days and having a little bit of pain in left side( near rib section) I think I have pulled a muscle during workout. I wanted to know can I continue some light exercise like yoga, pranayam and some cardio or should i give it complete rest unless there is no pain. I am taking Flexura D since yesterday.

It is best to give it rest until you feel all healed.
