Please tell me what can cause your little finger and all the way up your arm to go numb?

Pinched nerve: Most often the ulnar nerve is pinched behind the elbow. Other possibility could be pinching in the neck. Finally isolated ulnar neuropathy from some disease like diabetes or injury can do the same. See a neurologist.
