i was having the same symptoms finally went to the doctor cause i was scared found out i have the ulnar nerve entrapment i was told i may have to go see a specialist & you are right it is agrivating have your two fingers numb now my hand is starting to get weak.. thank you for the information it was very helpful i now know what to expect
I feel your pain, I went to the doctors today (one hand typing, sigh…) I got some anti-inflammatory cream, and some intense vitamin b6 pills… it sucks, my hand is also weaker, the numbness doesn’t go away. It happened a week ago, I pinched the nerve on the edge of something, arm rest or table cant remember. How is your condition?
had the same problem years ago, you tell people they say you mean Carpal Tunnel and you tell them NO it’s cubital tunnel. You have to do the surgery or the feelings will not return ever.
hi phyllis,had your operation 3 days ago,still got the numb pinkie finger,but the cold sweats have gone from the whole arm,thank you for your video and i hope you and i eventually get the feeling back in those fingers.heres a laugh for you,guess how i got my nerve damage? i rode a motorbike 7,800 miles in 12 days non stop.if only i knew then what i know now.ah well we’re all clever in retrospect,best of luck to you phyllis
I just found your video while looking for info on the ulnar nerve. I had never heard of it before going to my dr. last week with numbness in my fingers and palm. Thank you for passing on your info. I learned alot! Good luck!
Just found out i had this today, my pinky, ring finger and side of my palm have been numb for about a week now, on and off though. I’m sure i got it from leaning on my elbow. Will be going to doctor soon, hope it’s not too serious at the moment and won’t need an operation. Thanks for the video though.
hi all
im NINETEEN and hurt it from working out far to often and too long, i would lift 6 days a week…stoned..lol.. i had a nerve conduction velocity of 42 over the elbow, ulnar nerve, cubital tunnel…anyone have the surgery young? anyone be able to lift weights after ANY type of ulnar nerve surgery?!?!? thanks!
I have been dealing with numbness is my ring finger and pinky finger for a couple of years now. My doc just refered me to a nero doc. he said that I might need surgery. My question is how long was the hospital stay and recovery time.
Thanks
Thanks for sharing your experience. I have been experiencing numbness & tingling for about 2 weeks now. Planning on calling my dr. in the morning. I’m currently studying to become a massage therapist & have been learning about nerve entrapment & impingments. I’m on a break from school at the moment & the numbness started on my break. Might be a bit hard to massage when I go back. I am also a percussionist. Glad to see a fellow female drummer!
Thanks again!
i have that! i just got surgery for it. i had this injury since april and just got it fixed.
i hit my elbow really hard and couldnt move it or feel it for about 5-10 minuets and now everytime i slightly hit it i lose feeling and i cant move it for a short period of time
@mikerobinsonn
yo dude same here
i lifted way too much.. everday…
now im pretty sure i have ulnar nerve and im not sure if i should keep working out
it fucking sucks cuz all the harde work is to waste
i drive a tractor trailer. I have ulner damage in my right arm which is my dominant arm, and hand. The pain is unbearable. Someone, do you think I should change professions?
Thanks for the video…can you have local anaesthetic for this injury
@WillBackbone -how is your ulner nerve and elbow now? How long until it fully recovered, did it fully recover?
@mom2ahandsome3yrold0 -hi, how is your repositon of your ulner nerve workling out, how long until the surgery healed and you become 100%
@xxLabrat407xx How was your surgery on ur elbow, how long until fully recovered, did u fully recover/
@coldsummersky69 ya it SUCKS. and i feel like shit about it, i was so used to lifting daily, and all the sudden it’s like, will i ever be able to lift like that again?
i mean, im only 19, and idk if im getting surgery yet, i can lift like 4 days in a row, then quit for TWELVE, and it heals, it sucks.
what really blows is that i originally had tendonitis in both elbows for 8 months b4 my nerves acted up, in march it will be a year, i was 6’6 220 7% BF, and now im 6’6 185…its depressing
Hi, i need someone to help asap- i have this pain under my left ear, like its in my neck, but next to my ear. but its so painful only when i eat or drink. Maybe its a nerve thing, but im really scared- 2day a mate was messing around and fucked a pen at me, i was wondering if that would be the reason? can someone help me quick thankyou
@mikerobinsonn
did you go see the doctor yet?
ima go see doctor today or tomrow and settle this piece of crap
i play guitar, ride bmx bikes, and sit at the computer a lot
so i am a prime candidate for Cubital tunel syndrome and i have an appt monday for weakness and pain in my 4th 5th fingers, GOOD LUCK!!!!!
@coldsummersky69 ya i already got an emg done in october when i just had ‘tendonitis’ and it revealed moderate slowing of the ulnar nerve at the elbow on both sides, i think i’ve developed radial tunnel in both arms too, no emg yet, but im almost positive i started getting it in december. i have heard it’s and ‘anatomy’ problem and that ppl like u and me have smaller nerves grooves at the elbow, i’m getting the transposition no doubt soon, in both arms so i can hit the weights im depressed hbu?
@fbmuthafker i injured the same nerve as pmb003 but by falling on my funny bone. i was numb and weak for at least months and months. i just protected it with an elbow pad and did exercises every day and evetually i fully recovered. proper ergonomics is key to preventing alot of these types of injuries.
Hi Phillis……when i saw ur video it helped me figure out whats going on with my hand, its been 3 mths since I went to doc and i cant even get close to making a fist. They put me on low doses of steroids and arthritis meds and now i have muscle wasting, im set up for an MRI 3 weeks from today. I feel they r just letting this go and im afraid it will do alot of damage,,,,,,,,,,the VA is a slow process….any advice besides kicking them in the butt? rosemacfarland/facebook
I am going to have surgery for this and am really nervous. Have not had surgery with anesthia since I was a child. It hurts to type and it is my livelihood.
