??: Could be several possible problems you are rather young for most of the more common issues but such things do occasionally trouble teens you would be best to be evaluated by a physician esp if the problem continues or worsens.

Wait another week: Many herniated discs like what sounds like what you are having will resolve on its own in a few days to weeks. If you are still in a lot of pain and anti-inflammatories are not helping or if you notice numbness/weakness presenting itself then seek medical care to evaluate this further.
