What Causes Sharp Pain In Lower Back While Breathing Deep?

I m having pain in my lower left side towards the back. It started a week ago and typically only hurt when I took a deep breath or started to sneeze and was a sharp pain. Now it is a dull pain w/out moving or deep breath, still sharp with a deep breath.

I would strongly recommend that you go see your primary care doctor.
A very common cause of low back pain is spasm or cramping in the muscles that run up and down the sides of your spinal column, often caused by lifting heavy objects or some other form of minor injury.
Other, more serious causes of low back pain like this would include a kidney infection or kidney stones.
If you think you may have a medical emergency, call your doctor.
