Cubital Tunnel Syndrome Symptoms

2. Numb Hands
The ulnar nerve passes signals between our hands and our brain. Thus, when there is a problem with the nerve, messages from the hands will often not be able to make it to the brain. This results in a loss of sensation in what we experience as numbness. In addition to numbness, patients will also often experience a tingling sensation, similar to pins and needles.
This will mostly be felt in the little finger and ring finger, and/or in the hand. If you do experience prolonged numbness in your hands or other extremities then you should arrange to get it checked out.
