What Causes Lower Back Pain On Left Side?

I m experiencing lower back pain on my left side. It started approx. 3 hrs ago. If I move around a little it will eventually go away but not completely. However, when I sit and stand back up the pain returns. Also, when I stand up straight it s painful. It fills as though someone has a fist in my back and causing pressure. Again, lower left side.
