I recently started a receptionist job (Sept.2). This is my first office position where I am constantly at a desk and on the computer/phone. By friday, September 4, I noticed that my pinky and ring finger on my left hand (as well as part of the palm) had become numb. I am still experiencing this numb sensation with no relief. I belive it may have something to do with compressing the ulnar nerve but because it has lasted almost two weeks I am wondering if I should go to the doctor. Could this be somthing other than a compressed ulnar nerve? Could I have permanent damage?? And lastly, because of the duration should I seek professional medical assistance?? Thank you for any help!!!
