Carpal tunnel: Try splinting at the wrist and limiting prolonged elbow flexion. Resting your elbow on things can lead to pressure in the ulnar nerve. Try to sleep with your arm somewhat straight. A rolled towel storing the elbow msg work if not too tight. There are tendon gliding excercises that can also help for carpal tunnel. Cortisone injection for carpal tunnel is an option. Surgery is an option.

Get a diagnosis: First see a specialist to discover what you have, then seek out the cause. Hopefully, the casue is correctable without the need for surgery.
