About a week ago or two I started feeling my thumb being strained. I didn’t think too much about it because it wasn’t enough to bother me. Starting yesterday I started getting a tingling and pain sensation in my wrist/thumb area and it bothered me heavily. When I went to sleep I put on an old brace and it helped. Slept just fine and woke up with no discomfort but it started back up soon as my day started. Big note is that I don’t even do any heavy labor or repetitive movements with my wrist so I’m really confused. Before the thumb strain everything was just fine. On the contrary my left hand is perfectly fine. I don’t want to assume it’s carpal tunnel so could this be tendinitis? I am 23 yrs. Old
