Weakness of left pinky and ring finger
34-year-old doctor and self-taught guitarist. I’ve been playing guitar since I was 19. My problem started one year ago after intense exercise: the aforementioned fingers began having the tendency to stay too low, with the risk to stop the string (and the note) pressed by the middle finger when I play scales. Ultrasound negative. Self-clinical evaluation: carpal and cubital tunnel syndrome, epicondilitis and focal dystonia seem unlikely. No paresthesia: only light pain near the elbow after usage.

How are your middle finger flexion and extension movements when not playing guitar. Are they normal or is there any latency during extension? There might be probability of trigger finger
