What Causes Constant Pain In The Lower Back?

Hello, Last night at bedtime my lower back made it very hard for me to fall asleep. No matter which position I put myself in I was so uncomfortable and my lower back hurt pretty bad. This morning is the same. Hurts with movement, hurts with sitting. Goes up my back. Not sharp or dull or shooting. Constant pain that doesn t go away no matter what I do. I have no fever, no loss of appetitie, no numbness or tingling, nothing like that. The only thing I can think of that I did yesterday was move a potted planter. Didn t hurt at the time I did it and didn t hurt until right before I went to bed. This morning it hurt around the side and into my front on the left side. Right now it s my entire lower back and all the way across. Question is should I be seen? Wait it out? Should I be worried about my kidneys? No previous concerns with my kidneys to date. Thank you!

hello there.
lower back in your case can be due to spine .In my opinion you should get your x- ray lower back done to look for any slip disc or herniation .
thank you
