He also dropped an ornament on it this afternoon, causing increased discomfort. Should I take him to the emergency room or wait until tomorrow to call his doctor?

I have lower back pain from my spine to my hip on the left side. I've had it for three days and have been using a Salonpas patch with lidocaine 4% and 500 Tylenol. I haven't seen a doctor yet. How severe is my pain on a scale of 1 to 10, and does it change with bending? Are there any urinary or genital symptoms?
