Hi Chelsea,
You are correct in saying it may be related to your current work as a bartender which is likely to be placing recurrent strain on the wrist. So some modification to your work routine could well be needed to manage this problem.
As to precise cause, further assessment by your doctor will be needed including possible imaging of the joint between the scaphoid and trapezoid bones.
