I do not know if it is related but this is good info
Muscles like ropes are made of many fibers or strands. If some of the individual fibers that work in combination to make the muscle strong are not relaxing they bulk up in the middle and are stretched thin on the ends which results in the appearance of "knots" they are the tender spots. The muscles that effect headaches can come from as far away as the lower back and include shoulders, arms, neck and head causing a cascade effect. So a massage (professional if possible) will help.
Arms frequently have knots not just in the arm (especially upper) but shoulders, back, and neck. Until you can reach around behind you one arm up and the other down and at least come close to touching your fingers there are probably more knots. To help get the ones under your shoulder blade - keep you elbow down and put your hand on the opposite shoulder while (if you dont have anyone helping) lean into the corner of a building to apply pressure to the knot.
Specific to the leg - run your hand lengthwise down the section of leg that hurts. You will find tender spots these are the knots described above. Apply pressure to this area in a similar motion just over the length of the knot - it will take many sessions of doing this once or twice per session to get the muscle to relax.
Specific to the head - at the base of the skull where it connects to the spine there is a ridge in an upsidedown V like shape - press in and up to the count of three, three times to help relax the muscles there. All through the hair scratch lightly the head you will find tender spots those are knots (rub the rest of the head) the idea is to go over them semi frequently until they are gone.
General - Muscles need magnisium (regulates many things) and potassium - both can be found in bananas or molasses (a swig or two)
Hydrate with any nonsugar (even the substitutes) liquids - quantity = your body weight divided by 2 times ounces daily. The head of neurology (10 years ago) at UCDavis told my husband that running a body low on water is like running a car low on oil - there will be problems.
Reference - The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies teaches about muscles and how to help them yourself.

Does it feel like a pulled muscle, or pain is internal? press that spot with one finger and quickly let go, if it doesn't hirt when you press but hirts when you let go- very likely it's an appendicitis and you better go to the emergency room right away. if it doesn't hirt on release it could still be an appendicitis and you should show it to a doctor right away.
If I didn't scare you enough, ruptured appendics will cause peritonitis and possible death very quickly. So get yourself into emegency oom right away. It could turn out to be just gas or pooled muscle, and you'll have a good laugh, but better to be a little embarrassed than dead go to the emergency room right now.

Sounds like APPENDIX!!! Go fast to see a doc, its not a joke.
Try something else also: lay down on bed and lift up ur knees. While you are doing this, relax your belly muscles and ask someone to touch your abdomen. If your reflex is to lower your legs, it's clear appendix.
Anyway, go fast to see a doc. Appendix can explode and turn into a peritonitis. And that's not funny at all...
