I'm sure there was already a thread on here but I can't seem to find.
Carpel tunnel is starting to drive me up the wall now. My fingers are constantly numb and are starting to constantly hurt when I bend them. It's getting bad at night too, waking me several times. My fingers have also swelled up. It's mainly my right hand that's effected all the time but my left does flare up in the evening.
I've tried keeping my hands warm
Shaking them regularly
Stretching my fingers
Keep my hands down by my sides so the blood flows better
I bought a splint but it's horrible, seems to make the pins and needles worse
Bought an elastic wrist strap but again makes the pins and needles worse.
I'm at a loss, is there anything else I can try that's worked for anyone?
