| Yeah, it all really just depends on when the pain is coming and what you're doing when it does come. Is there anything more specific other than that you feel pain? |

How do you position your wrists while typing? Do you play a musical instrument? I think that tendonitis(sp?) is more likely than Carpal Tunnel. |

Carpal Tunnel has nothing to do with veins, it's nerve damage in the wrist brought on by repetitive motions (typing on a keyboard for example).
Hmm. Sorry I didn't know that. I just heard that term before and thought for some reason it had something to do with veins.. 
lol- I only know that because I'm studying for my anatomy and physiology test as we speak. It may feel like it's in a vein when it is really not.Veins don't have any nerves connected to them, so your veins cannot really "hurt". Carpal tunnel feels like a tingly "pins and needles" sensation with mild numbing preceding. You also could have just pulled a tiny muscle or something. There are a lot in the wrist. |

| Yeah I'm pretty sure there aren't many nerves in your veins. Carpal Tunnel is based in the nerves. |
