Cubital tunnel syndrome

What is it?

Cubital tunnel syndrome is a condition that affects a nerve that passes along the inside of your elbow. It can be caused by irritation of this nerve from repetitive or sustained bending at the elbow or with pressure on the elbow.

Symptoms

This can cause pain in the elbow, weakness into the hand as well as numbness and tingling into the little and ring fingers. The symptoms are often exacerbated by sleeping position (elbows bent) or leaning on your elbow.

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, book an appointment.
