Cubital Tunnel Syndrome stems from pressure on the ulnar nerve, though the exact cause is often unclear. Repetitive elbow movements, pressure from leaning on the elbow, or conditions like elbow fractures, bone spurs, and swelling can lead to nerve compression. The Flexor Carpi Ulnaris muscle may also press on the ulnar nerve within the Cubital ...

This compression is often referred to as “cubital tunnel syndrome,” and it can lead to nerve-related problems such as pain, weakness, numbness, and even muscle atrophy. While nerve compression is one cause of ulnar nerve symptoms, nerve instability (meaning the tunnel is too loose and the nerve moves more than it should) can also cause ...
