I've had pain on and off in my wrist since I was a teenager, and at the moment it's fairly bad. A physio therapist I saw a while ago suggested that it's a trapped nerve.
The pain is worse at night and I find my hands go numb fairly easily in certain positions while sleeping. But it's the pain that is most annoying and I'm having difficulty doing those fiddly little things such as doing up seat belts, buttons, zips, and I do seem to be dropping things more then usual. It can be very suddenly painful. It's mostly in my wrist.
I was wondering if it's carpel tunnel syndrome, but my thumb itself seems ok, it's more the middle fingers that are effected.
Any ideas? Any simple cures?

Does this sound like a trapped nerve in my wrist?
