You need an eval: That will determine treatment For now take 4 ibuprofen 3 times a day and do gentle stretches. Physical therapy is probably the next step.also try ice or heat whichever feels the best and be sure to sleep with bent knees and a roll under and between them

See a doctor: With pain that severe you need to be evaluated. It's possible that it's a kidney stone, your appendix or a problem with the disc in your spine.
