A member asked:
Fingers twitching specially left hand and thumb and index fingers, with pain, and the doctor said elbow compression, is twitching normal in elbow compression?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Twitching: For further evaluation of twitching of the fingers, sometimes an evaluation by a neurologist is helpful. They may perform an EMG to determine if there is some compression on the nerves innervating the fingers.
