Same here. I had a few manual labor jobs in a row that were very repetitive and hand unfriendly. I had issues with both hands so bad that I'd wake with numbness up to my elbows. Made it a real b!tch to shut off the alarm clock in the morning. Certain activities through the day would cause it to flare up, too.

I bought braces for both wrists and focused on keeping my hands flat and unclenched when I wasn't wearing the braces. I did some wrist tendon stretching exercises, too. The braces began helping a little almost immediately, but real relief too some time.
