Pain/Soreness: How Do You Know When to Take a Day Off?

Hi! I'm enrolled in the FB trial and I'm loving it. I love it so much I already bought the FB Burn (round 1) to start after I finish it. The problem I'm having is when to give it a rest and when to keep pushing? I'm having some pretty intense shoulder pain that isn't getting better, it actually hurts worse than ever today.

To make matters worse, my lower back started hurting while I was doing dead lifts and I don't know why. I'm assuming I did something wrong. I've done deadlifts with no problem with a kettlebell, but I had trouble immediately with dumbbells. Anyway, what should I do? Should I push my workout back a day and focus on icing and stretching today?
