Pain in back and rib

Please can someone tell me what might be wrong with me.

I have spasms of pain in my lower right rib and spine where the rib attaches. It's getting worse. The muscle hurts above and below the rib when prodded. The spasms are totally unpredictable.

It started on Thursday and this evening it's floored me. Worse than childbirth.

I've taken a lot of pain killers this afternoon / evening but not sure if I'm over doing them. But the paracetamol seems to have knocked the edge off.

1 pill ketoprophene
400 mg of ibuprofen
1g paracetamol

Heat helps.

Could it be kidney stones? I've just done the most disgustingly dark pee so I'm assuming I'm dehydrated. Hot day and I've been outside on the farm since 8.

If anyone has any suggestions please tell me.

Thank you

Gosh that would be unwelcome. Thanks all the same.
