Go to ER: It sounds like you need to visit an orthopaedic surgeon for a physical exam. Your diagnosis depends on the spot of the pain and the mechanism of any injuries you may have sustained. What kind of physical activity you have been doing, including any trauma, will help lead to the diagnosis, however, a physical exam is the best diagnostic tool. With pain that severe, I would seek immediate care.
