Parathesais/ motor: MRI of the head? rules out MS. If you are athletic/repetitive work could be thoracic outlet syndrome nerve entrapment, Sometimes cuboid tunnel and carpal tunnel if severe , may have effects radiating to forearm/arm if persists may consider EMG, also check TSH, T4 less likely if only unilateral. have seen shoulder pain with TMJ t not to hand.rarely consider mass/ CXR.
