Wear a wrist splint at night. Wrist splints are generally available over-the-counter at most drugstores or pharmacies.
Take quick breaks from repetitive activities involving the use of your hands.
Avoid sleeping on your hands to help ease the pain or numbness in your wrists and hands.
You can take anti-inflammatory drug like motrin 1 tablet with food as and when required (upto 4 tablets daily) to reduce pain.
Rotate your wrists and stretch your palms and fingers.
