Question: My left ring finger has been experiencing numbness for several days now. Today my left arm pit is tender and the bend in my arm has become sore. I also became dizzy for a few minutes this morning after showering. Any thoughts?

Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com.
I am Dr.Ajay Panwar,a neurologist,here to answer your query.

I have gone through your clinical history.History is not conclusive of any particular disease as numbness in left finger,tenderness in arm pit along with soreness in bend of arm and dizziness are unrelated clinical issues.This does not lead to a clinical diagnosis.

I feel it is in your best interest if you can get yourself examined by a physician.Tender armpit may be having infectious etiology,which may need an antibiotic treatment.

As of now,numbness in ring finger and single episode of dizziness may not be of diagnostic importance and you probably need to keep observing and if these symptoms persist,please review back as a follow-up query.

If you have any further questions for now,I shall be glad to have you in follow-up.

Regards
Dr.Ajay Panwar,
