Weird injury
At my class last night we were practicing pole sits and im not sure what i did but now my ring finger is numb (it feels like its asleep) and has been like this for about 12 hours now, has this happened to anyone else before or does anyone have an idea what i may have done? Its really weird lol

Go to urgent care or make an appointment to see your GP. A nerve may be getting pressed. Is your finger cold? If not, then it is probably a nerve, but if it is, then blood flow is not going through your thumb adequately. Either way, you need to see a doc.

Its not super serious though right? Ive been climbing and doing pole sitsfor a while and thishas never happened before

I have no way of knowing. If blood flow is restricted, then it can be serious. If it's a pinched nerve, that's not as bad, but it still needs to be dealt with before permanent damage happens. It may not even be in your thumb. It could originate in your neck.

Turned out to be a fluid build up in the carpal tunnel :-/ it's been almost a week and still no feeling in my finger so they put it in a splint. Kind of strange…hopefully the feeling comes back soon
