Suggest Treatment For Back Pain On Left Side

17 years old and I woke up with back pain on the left side between kidney and ribs. It feels better with ice but still have it after 1 week. it usually hurts if I try to bend or get out of the car. I am a golfer so I would like to know if I should stop golfing until it gets better.
