Yes, I would suggest you to take advice from a doctor. You will also need to get a x ray of your back to make sure that nothing has happened to your bones. At present if you want pain relief than you can start taking muscles relaxant like myoril or myospaz. Also try to use ice at your back local application of diclofenec ointment will also be helpful.
