What Causes Numbness In Fingers?

Yes please. I have noticed since this a.m. that I had numbness in my right hand middle three fingers only. I switched the cup to my left hand and I was fine. So I shook out my hand go get the numbess gone. Now at work I am holding a pencil to do work search and my hand, three middle fingers got numb, so I shook it out again. Why is this happening?

As you have not mentioned age and gender and ski associated symptoms, it is difficult to comment. However two possibilities to be considered in your case.
1. Cervical ridiculopathy of c 7 8
2. Carpel tunnel syndrome.
Go for MRI cervical spine and ncv study of both upper limbs.
