General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It is not related to carpal tunnel.
Drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated.
If symptoms persist better to consult a physician and get evaluated to rule out conditions like anemia and thyroid dysfunction.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
