Brief Answer:
Can be a nerve related ssue.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Inability to perform functions or inadequate grip is suggestive of a muscle weakness in the hand or due to a nerve root compression. This needs a careful evaluation by a neurologist to find the level of compression. The treatment will depend on the cause. Stretching exercises of the wrist and hand can help to retain the muscle strength.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
