{medical.doctors} Ulnar nerve

This post is boring to most of my friends. I am asking it here, since I think the Canadian health care system is very stupid and will take a lot to see a specialist. I am sure those of you with an MD degree (or even if you still are studying towards your MD degree) would know more than the physicians I have been to.

So, here is my problem. I feel "pins and needles" constantly in my little finger. At some point my ring finger also was numb, but hopefully after some precautions (not leaning on my elbow too often), my ring finger is back to normal sensations. Apparantly, I have been pressing too severly for too long on my Ulnar nerves. To avoid a surgury, I would do whatever to release that nerve from touching the funny bone. Here is how you can help me. Tell me in what arm postures, I should keep my arm. For the record, I will not be typing with two hands from now on. Also, if you could tell me if strengthening some muscles would help isolate the funny bone from the nerve, I may be able to retrieve the normal sensations. Thanks.

The source of these information is not the physicial who considered me a two year kid, I googled it and found this.
