hand and wrist pains?

I have bad posture due to scarring on my chest and when my posture is poor for too long, my thumb, index and middle finger go numb. recently, however, i have had a problem with my grip (which has always been strong). if i make a fist or hold something and bend my wrist like im revving a motorcycle, i have shooting nerve pains in my palm and forearm. is this carpal tunnel? if not, how do i fix it? is it a pinched nerve? if i keep my back straight, i dont get numb fingers but i still have the shooting pains problem...

    Yes it sounds like carpal tunnel, which affects the median nerve. Google it for treatments.

    You didn't mention if you feel tingly or numbness which would go with carpal tunnel. Your problem sounds more like arthritis especially the stiffness in your fingers. But the pain in your arm closer to your elbow could be more like a "tennis elbow" which is really a tendonitis of the muscle that pulls your forearm up. Only your doctor can tell you for sure. And he/she should be able to suggest an over-the-counter or prescribe a medication to help the inflammation on the days when it is worst. Don't be afraid to use medication it will help to prevent damage to your joints. It sounds like you spend alot of time at the computer which is a sure fire way to start all those symptoms. Be sure to take breaks from the keyboard regularly--at least every two hours get up, walk around and stretch all over and be sure to stretch your arms, wrists and hands and if you can, stretch the hands and wrists more often.
