Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain In The Spine After Lifting Heavy Weights

I believe I have suffered a herniated disk from heavy lifting. The pain is severe. A number of years ago I suffered a crushed pelvis after being run over by a car. I spent Three months in traction in a hospital. Should I seek medical attention for my current condition?
