Tendinitis: sounds like you're developing a tendinitis of your flexor tendon. It may help to wrap the rest, and I would take a nonsteroidal.

Try wrist brace: There may be a strained tendon or muscle, particularly since it is exacerbated by turning, gripping objects. I would advise a wrist brace and anti- inflammatory agent.
