Question:
For the past week or my right hand's smallest finger and the ring finger have been numb.....?
and now it's becoming difficult to even lift a plate with it as i cant feel any strength in that hand! What could be the symptoms related to? I haven't used the computer much either so it's not from using the mouse!
Answers:
Two major things to worry about.
It could be diabetes, which can cause nerve damager and cause numbness and tingling. Be sure to check for that.
It could also be from ulnar nerve compression. Ulnar nerve runs over your elbow, so if you put a lot of pressure on your elbow, that can cause nerve to be damaged. Make sure you take pressure off elbow and possibly wear an elbow pad. Also can try some antiinflammatory like Motrin or Aleve.
If you are not better, go see a doctor. He can run blood tests to check for diabetes and possibly a nerve conduction test for ulnar nerve compression. There are other possibilities he needs to see.
