 What is Cubital Tunnel Syndrome?


Cubital tunnel syndrome is pinching of the ulnar nerve at the elbow (your “funny bone”). Symptoms include numbness of the pinky and the outer half of the ring finger as well as weakness of the hand muscles. Common causes include frequent bending of the elbow or direct trauma to the elbow. An EMG may be ordered by your doctor to rule out nerve compression at the wrist or carpal tunnel syndrome. Nonoperative treatment includes avoidance of aggravating activities and possible nighttime splinting. Surgery usually involves moving the ulnar nerve in front of the medial epicondyle.
