What Causes Pain And Bruising Below The Ribcage?

All of the sudden, I have alot of pain in my back on the left side. It hurts to move or even sit. When I take a deep breath my left side hurts. Just below my rib cage and above my hip. When I touch the area it feels like a bad bruse. I haven't done anything today to cause any pain or issues.
Am make some hot tea in hopes that it will ease the pain.
Being that it's the beginning of a weekend, I'm not sure if I should call my doctor or try to make it til Monday.
