Well we dont have as many nerve endings on the top of our hands as our finger tip pads and palms etc...anyway...
Carpal tunnel would not effect the tops of your hands.

You have relatively few nerve clusters on the back of your hand, so there's not as much to feel. It's the normal condition of everyone's hands -- there's no good reason to have much feeling on that part of your body, because they don't protect any vital organs or get used to manipulate any tools.

maybe carpal tunnel syndrome if you stay on the computer a lot...that causes some numbness.

or rheumatoid arthritis maybe?
