Hello and welcome to HCM,
Senselessness or decreased sensations in the fingers can be due to nerve associated problems.
Is there any history of trauma to the arm, hand or fingers?
An injury to the arm and hand can cause injury, damage or compression to the nerve.
You need to consult your orthoprdician for clinical assessment, investigations and thus management.
Thanks and take care

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your wife and I would like to say that the numbness in finger of your wife could be due to the compression that might have affect the peripheral nerve but after the decompression this would come around and in my opinion better to see the orthopedic surgeon, take care and have a nice day.
