Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It could be carpal tunnel syndrome and we need to get a nerve function test for the same . Kindly get that done and if it comes positive then we can plan a surgery to release the nerve.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
