Depends on the pain.: Your decision as to whether to go to the emergency room will depend on the severity of your pain. If it is not something you can handle at home with whatever paid method your previous doctors have worked out with you, then you should go to the emergency room. If you do not already have a pain relief method worked out with your doctor, then you should go see him/her to work on this. Good luck.
