ouch! pulled a muscle

so I was pushing a car up a hill, as one does, two days ago. yesterday it hurt a little, but not that much. today I can hardly sit down and standing up takes ages. It's in my upper left leg, but its weird because it's not like a normal pull, I haven't figured out what actions hurt because sometimes I can get up normally and sometimes it hurts a lot when I simply shift weight off of it.

Anyone had anything similar and know how long it will take to go away?

what kind of pain is it sore, or more of a shooting pins and needles type pain?
It could be a trapped nerve in your back.

it is not like shooting but it is fine until I move the leg in a weird way, then it hurts.. it's not sore but not sharp, kind of in the middle I think.

The muscle you pulled gets more painful each time you pulls it.

Yes it will go away after a day or two, i guess its the first time you did thing of this sort, after the pain goes away try it again n it wont hurt you like now (just a little maybe)
