Strain vs Stone: Two most likely causes are a low back strain or a kidney stone (nephrolithiasis).  Kidney stones usually cause a pulsating pain, radiating to groin with no position that relieves pain, may cause blood n urine. Back stain will cause worsening pain with certain positions/movements depending on location.  Try ibuprofen and moist heat. See Dr asap if increased pain or persistent symptoms.
