It could be many: things, and best to get a definitive diagnosis to rule out musculoskeletal, nerve, colon, referred pain from your hip, sciatica or other cause. Once it's identified, you'll be relieved to know how to better treat it. A physical exam is needed so the doctor can evaluate it, and go over plans with you.
