Sudden loss of control in right hand

My friend suddenly experienced a loss of control or weakness in their right hand around 12:30 AM while using computer. The episode lasted approximately one minute, after which their hand returned to normal. There were no other noticeable symptoms. What could have caused this, and should they undergo any urgent medical evaluation or tests to rule out a TIA (mini-stroke) or another neurological issue? Could this be related to his gym routine, muscle fatigue, nerve compression, or the use of creatine or whey protein supplements?
