What to take for temporary carpal tunnel when you want to sleep?!


Question: What to take for temporary carpal tunnel when you want to sleep!?
I gave myself temporary carpal tunnel syndrome (from guitar), and now I can't sleep!. Should I take asprin, ibuprofen, or acetaminophen (nyquil)!?
It's hard enough to sleep considering I had an energy drink around 9:00 but now I can't sleep at all with my arm numbing up like this!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Take some ibuprofen and wrap it in a hot pad!.!. If you don't have a hot pad get a rag and wet it generously microwave for about 5 min till it's burning hot then grab some tongs and put it in a zip lock bag and wrap the bag in a towel and wallah there you go your home made hot pad!. FYI Icy hot doesn't do a darn thing, don't waste your time!. Hope it feels better!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ibuprofen and a hot water bottle or a rice-bag !. You could also try ice on the area!. Anything to distract you from the tingling!. Pop a pillow under your arm to change the angle of it and see if that helps too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
