For 4 months now my middle finger of right hand has been total numbness/pain due to golf injury of forearm. no anti-infl/cortisone helped. any idea??

Need MRI: X-ray won't tell what is going on. You may need MRI of the hand -wrist. Suggest seeing a hand specialist who are Orthopedic doctors.

Middle finger numb: Median or radial nerve injury is most likely. Recommend Electromyeologram/Nerve Conduction Study be done to help answer question. If positive for nerve injury, need to see good hand surgeon. Hope this helps. Good luck

Neurologist: A neurologist could perform a nerve conduction test(emg) to determine where the nerve injury exists. I also recommend that you consult a hand surgeon to work in concert with the neurologist and advise you if any further treatment is worthwhile and what the treatment options are.

Yes: I encourage you to talk with your doctor about evaluation by a medical acupuncturist. Good luck.

Nerve injury: You may have suffered injury to the medial nerve which innervates the three digits on the pinky side from recent injury or possible carpel tunnel syndrome.Use Ibuprofen to decrease inflammation or any pain you may have. These usually resolve with time though you have had residual numbness. A nerve conduction study by a neurologist can provide info. OTC Wrist splints can help in carpel tunnel.
