carpal tunnel syndrome



Not sure if this is orthopaedic or not as I am not a medical person.
I suspect I may have carpal tunnel syndrome.
History - daily use of computers, videogames with vibration function on
controllers, being treated for underactive thyroid.
Symptoms - Pains in the right wrist, sometimes left.  In right wrist, I have
tingling sensation often in my digits, and regular radiating pain to the
elbow.

Now I am in no way asking for a diagnosis, that is down to my doctor.  I am
merely asking in here the best way to deal with this until I can see the
doctor.  What precautions can I take, and what measures to reduce the pain
and tingling?
I will turn off the vibrate function on my videogame controllers in the
meantime and take breaks when on the pc.  Is there anything else I can do?
Thankyou, and my apologies if this is the wrong group

Beck
