Cant feel my finger properly

Had wrist injury in May - ligament damage. Arthroscopy under GA in August. Sometimes if ligaments been swollen I have had numbness/tingling in fingers, but usually its not the pinkie. Not had the numbness for a while. Have possibly hurt it again though by pushing a huge buggy. Today its only the pinkie thats numb/tingly. Is it likely to be same thing? Just confused because its a different finger

Sounds like a trapped nerve, that could be due to your previous injuries etc.

If it keeps going numb best get to the GP as you may need an Ortho or Neuro doc to have a look, to see what is causing the entrapment and how it can be treated.

You have my sympathy as I have neuro issues with tinglig/numbness and it is very annoying.

Had lots of ice on it and kept it up as much as possible. Able to feel it more now, so sounds like it was swollen.
