Don't jump more than 20 lbs between sessions. For example, on Day 1 you may only be able to do 75 lbs on squat and 115 lbs on the deadlift. Then next time you come in don't do more than 95 lbs and 135 lbs. Sometimes these types of tweaks sort themselves out in a week or two. Other times they linger for closer to 6 weeks. If you do not have red flag symptoms (atrophy, foot drop, fever/infection, or bowel and bladder issues) you do not need to go to the doctor.
Hope this helps!
