Likely nerve irritation (from neck/wrist strain or vitamin deficiency).
Avoid overuse of hand, take rest, do gentle stretching, can take B12 + pain relief if needed.
If it continues or increases, consult me for proper evaluation and treatment.

Hello, the 'electric current' sensation you are describing in your finger is a clear sign of nerve irritation or compression, often referred to as Paresthesia. This can be caused by conditions such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, a pinched nerve in the neck (Cervical Radiculopathy), or even a vitamin B12 deficiency.
Next Steps
Book a Video Consultation immediately. Please observe if the sensation is worse at night or during specific activities like typing or driving. Note down which specific fingers are tingling, as this helps pinpoint the exact nerve involved.
