• Pain, tingling and numbness in the small and ring fingers. These are often called pins and needles symptoms.
• Weakness of the muscles in the hand.

Symptoms may be felt when you have your elbow bend for a long time. 

These weakened muscles, called the intrinsic muscles of the hand, help with finger movements.

Patients with more severe symptoms of cubital tunnel syndrome may experience a tendency to drop objects or have difficulty with fine movements of the fingers.
