Hello,
Numbness and tingling sensation on the pinkie and the ring finger are due to the ulnar nerve. Probably the ulnar nerve of the right hand is being pinched on the way down to the hand.
You will need a good visit to determine the level of the impingement and which is the possible cause and needed treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
