Answers:

I am not sure if this is going to be very helpful because you've left out a few important pieces of information such as your age, what kind of work you do, that kind of thing because it could be caused by several things. Sometimes it could be an early sign of a carpal tunnel problem or as with me a disc problem in your neck. It is very common for the first symptom of a slipped disc or arthritis in your neck is a painful numb feeling in your little finger and sometimes the one next to it. The neck itself may not hurt but a disc can be putting pressure on the nerve that runs down your arm to the pinkie finger. It should be evaluated by a health practitioner if it continues to bother you because whatever the reason a nerve is being compressed and treatment varies due to the cause. Carpal Tunnel requires a brace for your wrist and if it is you neck cortisone injections can really help. NSAIDs would bring the most temporary relief by treating the inflammation.
