Doesn't sound anything like a disc injury. Number one, you don't fit the typical age of having a disc injury. The fact that it feels better while sitting/lying down but hurts more with standing leads me to believe it might be a spondylolisthesis. This is a common injury to younger people, especially males. Go see your family doctor. He/she will be able to see if it's indeed a spondy. via an oblique x-ray.Health Question & Answer
It might be a sacroiliac (connective cartilage of the lower spine) inflammation. You should see your doctor, if he/she thinks something is really wrong you can get a referral to a specialist.

You should see a doctor. Maybe when you fall down you damage a disc, I hope not, but it's better if the doctor take some x-rays to be in the right side. Meantime put some heating pad for 15 minutes and take some advil. But I think you should see a doctor. I hope you feel better. Happy Halloween.Health Question & Answer
