What causes lack of sensation in the back of right palm ? i do have upper back pain and stiff back. i have also suffered left body numbness few years back

Nerve entrapment: A problem in the neck can cause numbness in you hand but also a more distant nerve entrapment can cause numbness. If it is more toward the little finger side then it may be a problem with the ulnar nerve at the elbow. You will need an evaluation to make a determination what is causing it.
