Minor correction, Wartenberg's Sign is due to an inability of the palmar interossei (not the lumbricals) to adduct the fifth digit against the extensor/abduction tonic activation of the extensor digitorum and extensor digiti minimi.

I had some kind of shoulder tear about 5 years ago. I kind of just ignored it, but i think it eventualy lead to what i have now. I feel a little authritis type feeling in elbow sometimes. But the big problem is that i cannot straigjten my hand up, as if to put my hand on someon elses heart. I can mostly open it up when going in for a handshake, but i kind og have to spread my pinky finger wide, as my middle finger is generally pulled. Index and ring are also weal, but the cord that connects that middle finger must have caught a snag somewhere. I can push up from under the palm and extend it like normal, so it seams the actual finger has mobility, but somewhere be it the wrist or elbow, i assume the muscle has atrophied and it just wont return to working order. I still have a strong grup with this hand, and its probably not even noticable unless i have to extend my hand and wrist. I can waive, but again, the middle finger is slightly pulled and flexing the wrist back from paralell to anywhere backwards makes all the fingers claw with the tips trying to curve towards the thumb...i try to fight thos with the pinky, extended as far as it will go, but its really no use.
Causes and Remedies please.
Such a usefull and precious video

What to do if nerve damage is identified? I'm a patient with a combo of all of these from a poorly placed needle in icu. What can be done to fix this? I am getting no help from my medical provider. I can't find anything online for the "after," for patients.
Thanks. Sir

Ive had pain by my ulnar nerve in my wrist, I can move my hands freely but occasionally I will feel it down my forearm and occasionally on my elbow even my bicep get tight. but I don’t thinks it’s an elbow issue as the pain is really at the wrist.

I have it and yes, there are several hand muscles that no longer function at all. So the atrophy is significant and my right hand is much thinner. I also have permanent numbness on half the hand. Half of the ring finger and the entire pinky is completely numb at all times. My grip strength has decreased significantly also. I'm trying to find out if this is ever considered a disability or physical handicap
thankyou at least i know its not ms. i just dont have use of my right pointer finger. i cant squeeze my fingers together on my right hand. no pain, just no strength.
I had a Spaghetti wrist 13 years ago. With my hand all the tests come out in such a funny way!

My palm near the base of my pinky is painful.. I tried the wartenberg sign test..I can bring the pinky in towards my 4th finger but it hurts.. is it a ulnar nerve issue?
@ClinicalPhysio

Hi! Hard to say as pain is not a defining symptom with this test, just weakness. It could be ulnar nerve in terms of location but I would definitely recommend being properly assessed if you are concerned

Can Wartenberg sign be an indicator for ALS?
@ClinicalPhysio

Hi! Probably not in isolation… I.E. if the patient had Wartenburg’s sign only, I would be thinking principally about the ulna nerve, and not thinking about ALS necessarily

The only thing that works for me is stretching the last two digits all the way back to the wrist and holding it there. I do that several times a day every day. I also practice grip strength techniques like squeezing the grip and using weights to build up the dying muscles in my hand. Does anybody know if this is considered a disability where I would be unable to work
I got shot in my right arm an have the first one you talked about. I'm soooo scared cause it's my right hand. I'm sooo scared man. Its been 2 months an I'm just scared
