Read closely now...... I got it quite bad in my right wrist and hand about 3-4 years ago. My pinky and the next finger on that hand were numb, was in constant pain. Here is what I did:
I switched the mouse over to the left hand. That's right, even with me doing galleries and design work up the ying yang I still switched it over.... took months to train that hand, but I did it, period, no fucking excuses.
I also bought myself a wrist brace, one of those ortho-elastic ones with the velcro, and like someone else here said, I wore it at night too. I also started sleeping with an extra pillow to rest my arm and hand on.
I moused with my left hand for about 10 months, letting my right wrist heal up. It did, and then one day I moved the mouse back over to the right and have never had a recurrance of carpal since. I've got the feeling back in those two fingers and have never looked back.
