Pregnant, Having Unbearable Pain Due To Knot In Lower Back. Any Home Remedy?

I have a knot that feels like bone in my lower back about 3 inches from my spine on my right side. I have been able to deal with the pain for years but now I am 22 weeks pregnant and the pain is unbearable. I have rested as much as I can but I have a 15 month old that I have to take care of. My OBGYN said it's not her area and can do nothing. What can I do at home to help or should I go to the ER to see if they can help?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
No need to worry everything will be fine, try any local analgesic numbers of brands are available on counter you cant try any one of them "Diclofenac Gel " would be nice, even you can have oral medicine if the local fails to response because if you go bearing the pain then this may creates the kind of stress in baby so in such situation you can have any analgesic, as you are running with third trimester then the analgesic wont harm to baby haver nice day and take care.
