Hi,
Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms could be related to a pinched nerve or a ruptured ligament.
For this reason, I recommend consulting with a hand surgeon for a physical exam, a hand X-ray study and nerve conduction studies.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Ilir Sharka,
