Not an emergency: If the pain is bearable and you are able to eat without vomiting and sleep without any sign of fever etc. you can wait a few days to see your doctor for a definitive assessment. This may require some blood testing and or imaging study to confirm finding and figure out cause. If not feeling well in general, you should seek immediate assistance at your local hospital ED. Good luck:)
