I woke up with very bad lower back pain and this pain on left side below my ribs feels like sharp needle prick pain what could that be and im feeling lightheaded ?

Be seen: There are multiple potential causes. The location you are describing is near the location of the left kidney and so kidney infection or kidney stone would be among the considerations. I would not hesitate to be seen for a specific diagnosis.
