Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist,  's  Response
you need to get an NCV don't for the upper limbs. it could be a spasm of the flexor or extensor retinaculum. apparently you may undergo an MRI to check if any possible tissue damage is there. visiting and orthopedic specialist or a physical therapist will be of help. sometimes exercise helps advised by a physical therapist.
