Suggest Treatment For Carpal Tunnel In Wrists And Thinning Of Wrists

My wrists are getting thinner. I can tell by my watch band. My weight is pretty stable. I do have varying degrees of carpal tunnel in both wrists which shows itself in pain. It goes in spurts when I type too much or play the guitar. Can this be osteoporosis related?
