Need an orthopedic: You are too young for this. Need X-ray, an MRI AND AN EXAM BY A SPINE SPECIALIST not a family doctor. Possibilities include muscle strain, pars defect, scoliosis, disc herniation, infection, tumor. All these things can be sorted out by a good orthopedic spine doctor. Don't wait. Most of the time it's not the bad things.
