Hello, thank you for putting your trust in our site, my name is Dr.Soliman and I will be glad to answer your question.
The only suitable treatment for your severe pain for this carpal tunnel syndrome is surgery by cutting the ligament pressing on the median nerve either endoscopically or by open surgery and it is not a major surgery. But before the surgical option, you may need NSAIDs like ibuprofen and you can try steroid injection into the wrist to decrease inflammation and swelling which relieves pressure on the median nerve.
