Hello There ..first time posting on here and I haven't been climbing long.

I would like some advice please. I was climbing on a bouldering wall with a tricky crack. After pushing myself to climb up it a couple of times, I finished the session with pain on the outside of both arms just above each elbow.
Since that time (several weeks)I have experienced tingling finger tips that's seems to come and go . Also noticed that sometimes the ends of the finger tips go red on occasion especially when I grip and release my fist .

Have any other climbers experienced this ..? I'm thinking nerve impingement coupled with trying to climb difficult routes too soon..

I still have good strength in both hands but the tingling/numbness and red fingertips is annoying .

Would love to hear from anyone who has had the same or who can offer advice.

Thanks to all in advance T
