Left Pinky Finger Extremely Sensitive to Touch

Hello All,

Been trying to figure out what has been wrong with my left pinky finger for years now. Everything points to Ulnar nerve issues, but I never see anyone mention the biggest issue I am having, which is I can barely even touch my pinky on my left hand without causing a sharp pain. Just a slight tap by anything causes pain to go up my arm and also into my ring finger. On top of that exposing my pinky to warm to hot water can cause pain to go all the way up to my should/left side of my chest.

So far I have had multiple X-rays and multiple limited doctor visits (due to pandemic) with no clear answer. Thanks for any help or ideas, I still think it may be Ulnar nerve related, but would that make the finger so sensitive?
