what is the cause for the pinky finger to tingle
Sent to Health Experts January 09 10:49 PM

I hyper extended my right arm about three weeks ago; now that my arm feels better, I am experiencing tingling at the tip on my pink finger after working out or lying on right after for a period of time.

Generally the tingling occurs when there is a an entrapped or pinched nerve. Since it's the pinky, chances are it's the ulnar nerve or carpal tunnel as well. I would suggest seeing your doctor for further evaluation. If left untreated could cause further damage.
