Hi XXXX,
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com.
I am Dr.Ajay Panwar,a neurologist,here to answer your query.
Though in straight go, this appears to be related to nerve compression, as it's typically radiating along the nerve of forearm.
However, I need to know some more details so that I can guide you well further on this-
1)Since when are you having this symptom?
2)Is it worsening or static or improving?
3)Is it persistent or intermittent?
4)Do you have any other disease?
I shall be glad to have you in follow-up so that I can answer this well further.
