Worsening abdomen: It is important to get immediate help. So er visit is reasonable.

It depends: Er is for true emergency. That means you have either high fever or persistent vomiting assciated with your abdominal pain. If you are unable to eat/drink and might get dehydrated, then you should go to er. Otherwise(if you can eat and drink adequately, it can wait for visiting your doctor). Call your doctor tonight or on monday morning, if you have a regualr doctor. Otherwise you need to find a doc.
