I feel you! See the scar? Right elbow. Had a car accident and walked on crutches for a long time. Then I had the same symptoms you describe with my hand. Went to several doctors, 3 send me away saying I'm faking. Great! Made it to one and she send me to a neurologist who checked the nerves and lo and behold my nervus medianus and ulnaris were close to death. I couldn't grab anything at that point in time. Had an emergency surgery to save the nerves.
Lame. Doctors do that with Pura sometimes too. Frustrating. I hate having to speak up in the room. Often times it's like they diagnose her before they see her.
I'm bookmarking your comment. Gonna take it to the doc if between massage, chiro and physical therapy when coverage kicks in next month doesn't loosen it up.
I'll let you know if they think you're a psychopath.

You might wanna watch out putting pressure on it though. In my case, the nerves were squeezed for too long and there was a swelling in the canal, which then permanently pressed on it. Only noticed when the symptoms came. The canal was opened so that the nerves had room again. But by then it was relatively urgent. Good luck and watch out for yourself...and Pura. ✌️
