Yes this is a cause of concern. Its origin may be in the neck starting from the nerves that emerge from spinal cord and supply the arm and hand muscles.
You need a thorough evaluation by a Neurologist who will go for thorough history, physical examination including some nerve tests and maneuvers, and some blood work. If needed he may go for a nerve conduction test to see integrity of the nerves I talked above.
Other causes may be nutritional and vitamin deficiency and that also makes such issues.
Viral illness that affects the nerves and stimulates it, can cause such abrupt and abnormal nerves signals to be conducted along its route of supply.
