Your whole family has carpal tunnel?? You can get it from spending too much time on the internet. Go buy a wrist brace. You get it from repetitive motions over a period of time. Just because your wrist is popping, doesn't mean that's what you have. Carpal tunnel is really painful.My family has carpul tunnel and i need advice...?
Oh poor thing! Med school will eat up some pay won't it? If you can't find a brace on sale, get an ace bandage and wrap it. If your parents can afford internet, they can afford a brace.

Sleep with a rigid brace with a thumb support on the affected wrist to avoid bending it into any odd position while you are asleep. If the pain persists after about a week of wearing the brace, you need to see an orthopedic specialist to determine if the pain is being caused by tendinitis, nerve damage or a compressed nerve in your wrist. Best wishes.
