I had Carpal awhile ago. First, yeah you need to take a break from the computer but second, and this is kind of strange, my carpal went away when I started lifting weights. Anytime I sit or use the computer for too long and stop working out, my carpal flares up. Hit the weights 3 times a week and it'll be better in no time. Not a doctor but I am a PSW. :)

Thanks for the feedback jump! <3
For me it's the ulnar nerve that is compressed, so it's a cubital tunnel syndrome, but it's very similar to the carpal one! I actually took a break from lifting weights because I had the suspect it was aggravating my condition, but yesterday I was visited by an incredible physiatrist who told me it's not a real danger to hit the gym unless some movements clearly make the symptoms flare up! So I'm gonna get back to it soon, right after some nerve treatments are over!
