weird pain in my left hand?

Question

ok, well, this morning i woke up, and decided to play on my piano, when suddenly i got a weird, sharp pain near my ring finger, it only lasted a second. now, i have a weird feeling from my elbow to my wrist. it's not painful, but it feels really strange, not really numb.. it's hard to explain, it feels like my veins kinda lost circulation. it's a come and go thing. btw, yesterday, i only played the keyboard for an hour or and hour and a half. I didn't have any pains this morning when i woke up, it just appeared when i was playing the piano. Should I be concerned? Or is it just a passing cramp, or just a way that i slept last night?

Extra info: it bothers me more near my elbow than my wrist. nothing else hurts. i did nothing that would be to hard on my hands. i do take rests. this has only happened to me now. i didn't have any pain yesterday and i slept fine. i could make a tight fist, i have a good grip and i could tell the difference between hot and cold.

im only 14 years old

i believe that i have a very healthy lifestyle

my little finger feels the same as all my other fingers

This sounds like over use from repetitive motions. If you slept on your side that will definitely cause circulation And nerve problems. Always sleep on your back. You may have to train yourself to do it but it's the best thing for your bodies alignment.

I don't think you need to be overly concerned. Just take more frequent breaks from the keyboard and soak your hands for fifteen minutes every evening with 1c. of dissolved Epsom salts. This will relax the muscles your hand and Help you feel better.

if you don't feel better within a week see your medical doctor.
