Finger Numbness

Question
I have been experiencing numbness in my left hand (2 fingers, ring and small finger).  I am a fairly active person and play squash (a racquet sport 4 or 5 times a week.)

I am currently on 60mg of prednisone a day in the morning for sarcoidosis in my lungs.  Over the past 3.5 months I have shown improvement but wonder if you think this could be some nerve pinched somewhere or a side effect or...

Interested in your feedback when you have a moment.

Thanks

Dave

Answer
You may want to have it evaluated by a good chiropractor.  It can most assuredly be caused by a pinch, anywhere from the neck to the hand.  If nothing is found, or there is no change in condition with treatment, you might want to check with your medical doctor to make sure it is not a side effect.
