Suggest Treatment For Numbness And Pain In Left Arm

I am experiencing severe numbness and pain in my left arm when I work out, especially lifting. Also, my left arm gets very red compared to my right arm when I am working out. Is this a sign of poor circulation or do I need to seek further medical attention?
