Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The symptoms seem to be related to carpal tunnel.
A neurological examination is needed to confirm the diagnosis.
Meanwhile you can use anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen in case are needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
