Get evaluated: Really bad pain should be evaluated as it can indicate a severe underlying disease such as degenerative arthritis, cancer, vascular disease, or muscle disease. Lots of times the problem is the muscles start to spasm and will continue to do so until you break the cycle (sometimes with pain medications). Symptoms like these deserve a full evaluation in person by your health care provider.
