General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein and I will try to help you as much as I can.

It sounds to me like canal neuropathies due to compression of nerves in carpal or cubital canal. This is not uncommon and in most cases can be treated by physical therapy,however, sometimes surgical procedure is required for decompression.

I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
