Could be wear n tear or trapped nerve. Could also be referred pain from lower back. If your really struggling I would ask the doctor to bring your appointment forward due to the pain your in. Have you tried hot and cold packs, trigger point therapy that you can find on you tube or tens machine? Also ask at your chemist for something to help the pain while your waiting as I'm sure your not sleeping too well and when that happens the good old depression kicks in. So don't suffer in silence and give the doctor another call. Hope all goes well. X

It's a Docter you need to see so that they can prescribe some stronger pain meds and hopefully refer you for mri scan etc to find out what's going on.
