Trapped nerve in elbow?

I have been advised by my orthopedic surgeon that the pain I am suffering may be due to a trapped nerve in my elbow? I get pins and needless in my small and ring finger and pains in my fingers and knuckles. I suffer from osteoarthritis in my wrist and thumb but he said they are separate problems. I don't get any pain in my elbow? I have a nerve conduction test and an EMG  scheduled for 31st. Depending on the results he may release the nerve should it be trapped. Has anyone else experience this before?
