You may be suffering from Ulnar nerve dislocation
Ulnar nerve dislocation is a common cause of pain and or prickling sensation that is usually felt down the are and in the hands.
It occurs if the ulnar nerve dislocates slightly (subluxates) over the anterior aspect of the medial epicondyle during flexion and extension of the elbow. A "snap" may be heard or felt.

The ulnar nerve is one of the arm’s major nerves and is part of the brachial plexus nerve system. It gets its name from its location near the ulna bone, a bone in the forearm on the side of the pinkie finger.
It starts in the neck and travels through the shoulder down the arm into the wrist and fingers.

It provides sensation to the forearm and the fourth and fifth finger. It also innervates (stimulates) the flexor muscles of the hand, allowing it to bend and move.

The single most common cause is compression on the ulnar nerve. The compression may be a result of any of the following:

1️⃣ An activity that causes a person to bend and straighten the elbow joint repeatedly (ex. shoulder presses)
2️⃣ The ulnar nerve slipping out of place when the elbow is bent
3️⃣ Fluid buildup in the elbow
4️⃣ Current or previous injury to the inside of the elbow
5️⃣ Bone spurs in the elbow
6️⃣ Arthritis in the elbow or wrist
7️⃣ Swelling in the elbow or wrist joint
8️⃣ Leaning on the elbow for an extended period
