Man, get your bike to a good mechanic pronto and don't ride your bike until then.

If you have aluminum cranks and a hardened steel spindle (very standard arrangement), it will only take a little bit of riding ( less than one city block) with the crank loose to damage your crank beyond repair. The spindle will chew up the crank port lickety-split.
