PLEASE answer!! I have really bad pain in my upper left back. What could it be? Should I go to the ER?

Since last night around like 10 pm I have had this throbbing achy pain in my upper left back like shoulder blade area kind of and I was able to go to sleep eventually but as soon as I got up it is still there. I don't have any other symptoms and I'm fairly healthy and only 21. Could it be something serious? Should I go to the ER?

    Try alternating 30 minutes heat and 30 minutes ice and take some IBUprophen because it relieves pain and reduces swelling. Try this for about 2 - 3 hours and if the pain is still there seek medical attention.
