ok yesterday I did a Lat shot and last night i my right pinky started to feel numb..and the out side of my palm next to my pinky...i think this is because i hit a nerve when i did my lat shot...but i did not feel much pain when i did the shot...DID I hit a NErve...Or is this an early warning sign for a stroke...Im fucking paranoid...when will this shit go away..
sorry, I think I missed where you took your shot. In the delt?
I once shot into a nerve in my ass. The muscle spazed right out. Everything was fine.
Been my experience when you hit a nerve it tells you right now, not later. You should be good to go, you prolly just put the depot next to a nerve, not hit it with the pin.
lat shot? wow..
Why did you shoot in your lat? Experiment?
lol u no when u hit a nerve!!! I sure the f*uck did!!!! lol :haha:
the pinky finger on palmar and dorsal side is innervated by the ulnar nerve, which does not pass anywhere near the lat...so i dont think you hitting a nerve has anything to do with the numbness
Sounds like the beginning of Carpal...you doing any GH?

The pinky,ring finger and that side of the hand going numb are symptoms of cubital tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome is the other two fingers and thumb and affects the nerve in the wrist. I have had two surgeries on both wrists with great results but had the nerve in the elbow moved because of cubital tunnel and would not recommend having that done until it is a last resort. Had the elbows done last sept and oct and still weak as hell. Carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel is very common in weightlifting. Tony is right about the median nerve.
you'll know when a nerve is hit while the pin is in you, at least thats been my experiences
