Your symptoms—burning and pricking pain in the palm, skin irritation, and thumb pain due to mild carpal tunnel syndrome—require further details for an Ayurvedic assessment. How long have you had these symptoms, and do they worsen at a particular time of day or after specific activities? Do you have any history of diabetes, thyroid disorders, or past wrist injuries? Have you noticed weakness in your grip or numbness in your fingers? Have you undergone nerve conduction studies (NCS) or any imaging tests? Additionally, your dietary habits, sleep quality, and stress levels play a role in Ayurvedic treatment. These details will help in determining a suitable management approach.

Totally get where you're coming from with that, carpal tunnel can be such a pain, right? So, Ayurveda can definitely help support and maybe even ease those symptoms. But let's break it down. The burning, pricking, and irritation you're feeling is like the body throwing out signals, usually when the vata dosha goes out of balance, causing dryness and nerve issues. So, it's important to gently calm, stabilize and nourish.
Start with oil massage, or abhyanga, using warm sesame oil or even mahanarayan oil. Just gently apply to your palm and up to the elbow, even two times a day if you can. Just don't go heavy-handed, k? Letting the oil sit for 30 mins before washing off could really nourish those nerves and skin.
A decoction (a kind of herbal tea, if you will) of dashamoola is quite grounding and should help soothe inflammation. You could take about a teaspoon in warm water, ideally, on empty stomach in the morning. Focus on diet too, since everything starts there. Bump up intake of foods that pacify vata like cooked whole grains, warm soups—basically the kind that’s grounding and warm.
And don't forget easy yoga stretches—especially wrist stretches for a few minutes each day. It helps, trust me. And keep your hand posture in mind, especially while typing or using the mouse.
Mostly, if the stuff really bothers you, just playing it safe by consulting a qualified practitioner nearby would be a wise choice. They could blend in the right herbs and treatments just for you, 'cause Ayurveda is all about custom approach. The thing is, carpal tunnel may take time to feel better, but patience and consistent effort will pay off.
