What Can Cause Numbness Below The Knuckle Of The Middle Finger?
Numbness below the knuckle of my middle finger of left hand. Off and on I feel what seems like nerve pain, especially if I put pressure on the back of my hand. Had numbness in thumb of right hand but started wearing a brace at night and it went away. Concerned about what I am feeling now because it is different.

Hi,
It could be an early stage of nerve compression or a small nodule in front of the knuckle. I suggest NVC test rule out compression first.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care

Dr Gopal Goel, Orthopaedic Surgeon
