ello,

Thanks for writing to Health Care magic, I am Dr , Muhammad Ahmad , I have read your question closely, I understand your concern and will be helping you with your health related problem.

You symptom suggests that your ulner nerve is being pressed and probably it is the time you get you carpal tunel surgery done, this will keep getting numbs if the nerve is not relieved off the pressure it is having within the tunnel. I would advise you to meet your surgeon and discuss about the possibility of treatment in my opinion you will be needing a surgey to get rid of the symptoms you are having.


I hope this answered your question, If you have more queries I am happy to answer you.
Regards.

Dr.Muhammad Ahmad
