I have aching and sharp pain on my lower abdominal side right above my hip bone, the pain is constant. The pain is also causing aching lower back on my right side as well.

You are describing possible appendicitis which can be very dangerous if it bursts. I would go to the ER to be safe.

Here are the symptoms:

Symptoms
The symptoms of appendicitis vary. It can be hard to diagnose appendicitis in young children, the elderly, and women of childbearing age.

Typically, the first symptom is pain around your belly button. (See: Abdominal pain) The pain may be vague at first, but becomes increasingly sharp and severe. You may have reduced appetite, nausea, vomiting, and a low-grade fever.

As the inflammation in the appendix increases, the pain tends to move into your right lower abdomen and focuses directly above the appendix at a place called McBurney's point.

If your appendix ruptures, the pain may lessen briefly and you may feel better. However, once the lining of your abdominal cavity becomes inflamed and infected (a condition called peritonitis), the pain gets worse and you become sicker.

Your abdominal pain may be worse when walking or coughing. You may prefer to lie still because sudden movement causes pain.

Later symptoms include:

Chills
Constipation
Diarrhea
Fever
Loss of appetite
Nausea
Shaking
Vomiting
