i know yo umay not want to take any time off but you dont want it to get worst.

Good point. You need to make sure your ego does not get in your way. What I mean is that it is understandable that you would want to "work through" the pain and continue to make gains. The down side of this is that in the long run you are probably going to be worse off, pain wise, than you are now and will stop progressing and start falling back, training wise.
You have to know your body and what it is telling you. Pain is there for a reason, to let you know something is wrong. It is better to figure it out now rather than develop serious problems later. Good luck.
