Get yourself to the doctor if this is something new that has not been checked out.  Call a family member or friend or 9-1-1 if no one is available to take you.

If it's something you're already seeing a doctor about, then you're going to need to talk more to the doctor about what is causing it.

My guess is there's some sort of damage to your nervous system.

What does the pain feel like?
Does it hurt more, less or the same when you are lying/sitting and standing/moving?
