Maybe: Tingling to those fingers are usually associated with a nerve irritation. If you trace the nerves back, it can mean a local only irritation at the wrists, which can be carpal tunnel. It is not uncommon to have carpal tunnel in both hands. But, usually, it is associated with a flexed wrist. Other sources include irritation as the nerves leave the spine, at the brachial plexus, or spine.

Possibly: Carpal tunnel causes numbness and tingling in median nerve distribution to the thumb, index, long and radial half of the ring finger. Therefore this could be early symptoms of carpal tunnel.
