ouch ouch ouch ouch ouch!
I have had that pain on occasion, and, mercifully, it has only lasted for a day or two for me. whew! But I know now that if I get that little pinch, I'd better change my position on the saddle *right now*! If I can get comfortable again really quickly, the pain goes away and I can ride as normal. If I try to keep riding and pretend the pinch isn't there, it will last for a few days. It also seemed to be worse for me with a certain combination of shorts and saddle. I think it was my more well-padded PI shorts when I was on the road bike.
If you have any arnica rub of any kind, it may help relieve the inflammation and discomfort, so you can get back on your bike sooner. Heck, sitting on ice would probably be good, too.
Sending butterflies for your quick recovery,
hugs, too
