My left ring finger and pinky finger have been wierd and numb for about 2.5 weeks! advice?

Many possibilities: These symptoms are usually caused by nerve compression, with the most common culprits being the ulnar nerve at the elbow or a nerve root in the neck. A neurologist can help you narrow down the underlying cause and find the best way to relieve your symptoms.
