Hi

You should def check with GP first to rule out anything else, especially as we don't know your medical history. but could be some kind of trapped or pinched nerve, if the GP doesn't help i would definately concider trying a chiropractor, osteopath or physiotherapist.  depending on who you talk to you will get a multitude of preferences out of those three. Mine lies with chiropractors.
