1. Could be a pinched nerve.2. There are many possibilities for what this could be, and some of them are quite serious. A kidney infection can cause one-sided lower back pain but if the pain is going around to your abdomen you may have a kidney stone. Appendicitis can start as back pain and then localize to the right side of your abdomen. If there is a chance that you might be pregnant, an ectopic pregnancy could cause the pain you describe. None of these possibilities will go away by themselves. You need to be seen by a doctor as soon as possible.
