Hello there I have read through your question and would like to tell you that pain and numbness in the finger s with pins and needles sensation is a sign of nerve compression. I would advise you to get an MRI cervical spine done. Meanwhile try doing some stretching exercises. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write. Thank you for choosing healthcare magic.
