Reading more of the other suggestions. Sounds like how the docs first diagnosed me. Keep saying it was the nerve compresses in my elbow and put me in a brace. Didn’t get better. Was finally diagnosed it was compression in the neck
A nerve study could have told them this right away. My mom has had the same issue with tingling/numbness in her ring and pinky finger. She was already being treated for some back issues she has, and her orthopedic guy scheduled a nerve study as soon as he saw it wasn't getting better. He wanted to rule out the neck. It was around a 15 minute procedure (in and out in around a half hour from the time she got there) and showed it was not her neck, but her elbow. Also showed minor carpal tunnel in both hands. The nerve release procedure is minor and wouldn't take much, but it isn't bothering her too much, so she has opted to forgo surgery so far.
