Is this something worth seeing a Doctor?
I know we've seen our share of stupid medical help threads on CP but this one I think is a legit ask before rushing to the ER...
I got slammed on my right elbow in jiu jitsu class last Saturday landed on my 'funny bone' which I'm pretty sure is actually a nerve and can't feel the top of my pinky and ring finger on the same arm for almost a week now. I can write, control a mouse and everything else fine but there's no feeling. I'm 99% sure it wasn't a stroke or anything just because of the way it happened and I can feel the tingle from elbow to finger tips but when do you see a doctor on this one? It's kinda cool beating off tho, like getting a hand job from a reerun. |

You pinched your ulnar nerve (funny bone). A week seems like a long time. I'd google it and see what you find out from that as I'm sure it's happened to plenty of others.

That's how my back was. I had a bone fracture in my low back pinching a nerve and the pain was excruciating and I needed surgery, meds & epidurals did me no good.

Soak it in antifreeze, eat some rabbit and then use that arm to masturbate in the middle of the highway.

Try taking a salt tablet. That should help.

You’re lucky that’s all it did. Getting slammed on your elbow that hard is the kind of thing broken shoulders are made from.

Had a broken shoulder, it's not that. Nerve stuff.

Oh I’m sure, that’s all it sounds like, just giving you the “count your blessings” speech.
![]() Kinda like the ER doc stitching up your face and saying, “That’s why we call them ‘murdercycles’.”

Why not go see the Doc before you wait to long and something really gets ****ed up?
Then again you could just rub some dirt on it.... |
