My injury was at L3, so may very well be unrelated, but that’s the first point at which I remember my back issues really starting. The doctor did say that the Ulnar nerve would be the point of his investigation given the symptoms, but due to some other aspects of my life/family medical history, we also went for a full spine/neck x-ray/MRI.
The other aspects being that I have also trained and fought in Muay Thai for many years (although no longer), which puts a lot of stress on the neck, so that could be a component; my dad, his mum and his brother and sister were also all diagnosed with arthritis in their mid-twenties (which is the same age as me now), my grandmother having had spondylosis, which has a hereditary element, so it could also be an aspect of that along with the neuro. I really am unsure at this point.
