assuming the wave is electromagnetic... the energy of a single photon of that frequency is given by the formula E=hf

where E= energy of the photon h=the Planck constant f= the frequency of the photon

From this the energy of the photon is the Planck constant (6.63 x10-34) multiplied by the frequency 3.6x1016 Hz.

E= 23.9x10-18 Joules.

The wavelength of any wave is determined by the equation wave speed = frequency x wavelength. thus, the wavelength is the wave speed divided by the frequency. since all electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light then...

wavelength = 3x108 / 3.6x1016

wavelength = 0.83x10-8 = 8.3x10-9 metres.

The electromagnetic radiation corresponding to this energy and wavelength is ultraviolet radiation and may be of interest to nuclear medicine.

What specialty of medicine treats muscle pain?

Such as a case like this one, I would say that there are a few areas of medicine that can deal with a problem like this one. Sports Medicine or Physical Therapy are areas of medicine that can determine the cause of your muscle pain. If these areas of medicine don't improve the problem, then I would suggest you see a Neurologist, which can determine a problem within the brain or central nervous system.
