Cycling - Cyclist Palsy

Featuring Dr. Larissa Roux, MD, MPH, PhD, CCFP, Dip Sport Med

Duration: 1 minute

Cyclist palsy describes a condition where there's inflammation of the ulnar nerve, which is a nerve that travels through the arm and into the hand and provides both feeling and motion of the hand.

Repetitive vibration and shock transmitted to the arm through the handle bars is usually what brings on this condition. It is particularly prevalent in off road bicycling or mountain biking.

This condition generally presents with numbness and tingling in the fourth and fifth digit of the hand, as well as occasional pain in the forearm. However, if left untreated it can go on to muscle wasting in the hand and loss of grip strength.

If you have questions about cyclist palsy, contact your local sports medicine physician.
