Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to tunnel carpal syndrome. I recommend using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen three times a day.
I also recommend using the brace to prevent aggravating the pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
