Brief Answer:
Take 3 to 4 liters of water and cranberry juice

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear
good day
in my opinion it might be urinary tract infection with or with out renal stone.
usually back pain will be seen in cases when renal stone is defending in to bladder.
it is not emergency but in some cases it might complicate the case by acute abstruction of ureter.
so in case of repeated pain I suggest you to consider going to ER
in case of no pain see your doctor tomorrow.

Hope I am able to satisfie your query,feel free to discuss any further.

hoping to see a good feed back from you.

regards
