Cellbow.org is a blog about cell phone elbow, also known as “cellbow.”  Cellbow is caused by talking on a cell phone or regular phone frequently for extended periods, which can result in pinching of the ulnar nerve in the arm.  This affliction is known as “cubital tunnel syndrome” (CuTS), which causes pain, tingling and numbness in the elbow and ring & little fingers.  Untreated, this can ultimately lead to extreme pain, surgery or an unusable hand.

WARNING!  Cubital tunnel syndrome is a serious medical affliction that requires attention from a specialist who has direct experience treating CuTS.  Do not rely solely on this website, any other website, or your family doctor.  Please see a hand doctor or surgeon, and get a second opinion if you have any doubts.
