How are you?
Numbness in the ring and little finger is a sign of cubital tunnel syndrome. This condition involves the ulnar nerve as it crosses the inside edge of the elbow.
Frequent bending of the elbow and injury to the elbow can lead to this syndrome.
The treatment includes OTC NSAIDS, avoidance of frequent bending of the elbow, forearm splint and physical therapy.
If the symptoms continue to get worse surgery is the only option.
Please consult an orthopedic specialist and discuss this possibility with him. Do keep us posted!
