Pain in left hand due to nerve problem

Brain and nerves
1

HI All,

From last 10 days I have been suffering with pain in my left hand. I cant bend my elbow at all. I am able to bend just 5 to 10 degrees.I feel a nerve being stuck at my elbow. Also I feel numbness and irritation in my little finger and ring finger all the time. Is it because of cubital tunnel syndrome???, but I cant bend my elbow so i am doubting it. As i heard i can bend elbow in case of cuts.

Kindly suggest as im suffering from svere pain from last 1 week and I have Doctor appointment in 2 weeks.

THank you very much doctors.

Hi John,

Firstly, welcome to the forum.

I would like to point you to our Patient page regarding this disorder, please read this first, and report back if any of it applies to you, so we can get a better idea of the symptoms you are suffering from. Also note, did this just happen for no reason or were you working on something at the time.

Hi. Im a 28 y.o female driving myself crazy thinking i have MND/ALS. i dont know what to do anymore. About 5 days ago i found it difficult to pick up my pen. Loss of coordination almost. I didn't think much of it then had severe cramps in my hands the next day. The coordination comes and goes. I feel weak in the hands but nowhere else. Burning sensations in my shoulders and muscle pain all over. The day after my hands i noticed frequent twitching in my legs (although i have had several panic attacks about this in last few days). I don't seem to have lost any muscle definition in my arms but i feel as though my left hamstring muscle looks smaller. Again, this could be fabricated in myhead. My legs dont feel weak sometimes again i feel loss of coordination. The doctor tested strength in hands arms and legs and said all are really good. I haven't had any real problems with speech or anything. My jaw had periods of tightness by i found that was after clenching and my tongue feels sticky but not tight or twitching just weird. My current conditions are Chiari Malformation Type 1 and Cervical kyphosis. Im seriously at a wits end and have convinced myself this is my fate. Looking for answers.
