What Causes Pain And Numbness In The Hands?

I have been having numbness on my left 4th and 5th digit area extending into my hand. Then had a muscle weakness & pain with difficulty moving from elbow to hand. now this muscle weakness and pain has gone into my bicep area. I have a hard time holding things and drop them a lot today with the bicep pain i find it slightly difficult to fully extend my arm.

hello,
since you are complaining of numbness and pain weakness in bicep area, elbow, forearm, and 4th and 5th digits, these are signs of radial nerve injury at the level of mid- humerus. you should take consultation of a neurologist. meanwhile you can take, tab tramadol for pain, tab neirobion- forte and physiotherapy.
