Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have tingling & pain in fingers. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like nerve entrapped like ulnar nerve , vitamin B12 deficiency or inadequate blood supply .

If condition doesn't get well then consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor may order CT scan or MRI along with take history . Doctor may recommend physical therapy , prescribe anti inflammatory along with nerve supplement .
