A few days ago I started getting pain and now sometimes sharp pains in my thumb (primarily) and the side of my hand above the thumb. : Has anyone had Carpal Tunnel as the result of a similar experience to that I describe above? If so, would love to hear from you and thanks. I haven't had the experience you describe, but I would guess that the constant use has caught up with you. Several of the others have tendonitis in the thumbs too, I think. Someone should get back to you soon, and maybe they'll have some good ideas. If you've done extra lately, you could have made the tendons even more sore. I would recommend you get it checked out, there are splints they can get you specific for thumbs to wear at night to help make them get some rest. A diagnosis by a doctor can help you get some appropriate treatment.
