I have an RSI (repetitive strain injury) is that what you are thinking of. It causes a numb tingly feeling in the ends of my fingers and also a lot of pain from time to time. I get it from touch typing to much. its also called
carpal tunnel syndrome. take care good luck

I am an occupational therapist and we see this a lot. Did you hit or damage your elbow? If so it could be ulnar nerve palsy or neuropathy. This is caused by damage to the ulnar nerve which runs down your outer arm to your last 2 fingers. The only way to be sure is to go to a physiatrist or neurologist to get an EMG (electromylogram) which will test the nerve conduction.

Numbness in the pinky and ring finger are indicative of either Ulnar Nerve Palsy or a Cervical Nerve issue in the neck.

it is probably a pinched nerve, maybe from a herniated disk. it could even be carpel tunnel. I'd go back and check up with your neurologist.

Probably a pinched nerve. Have it diagnosed and if it is, go to a gym that has an Inversion Machine (where you can hang upside down). Using it will help un-pinch the nerve.

It sounds like you have peripheral nerve damage. If you have not seen a doctor then you should because this condition can be treated in most cases.

I had that from a car accident when I herniated some disks in my neck. Those fingers still tingle from time to time.

Acupuncture, which involves inserting thin needles into various points on your body, may reduce peripheral neuropathy symptoms.

Just a pinched nerve. I have them all the time but get treatment. If you don't, it can damage the nerve.

just had tests done for that very thing and in PT for it.
the ulnar nerve is pinched in mine, right at the elbow...
PT is helping with the exercises
