At home we use warm sesame oil to gently massage the wrist, but please show it to a doctor if the numbness in your fingers keeps increasing.
I went to a specialist at Kokilaben hospital for this. You should directly ask your doctor if you need a night wrist splint, it made a huge difference for me.
Give your hand some rest from heavy chores like washing clothes or lifting heavy buckets. Just keep it warm and rest as much as you can.
If your orthopedic doctor says it is fine, doing gentle wrist extension stretches before your daily walks can keep the joints loose and help with blood flow.
With my high BP, I have learned that full-body health is connected. Take regular breaks from typing, stretch your fingers, and do check your regular vitals.
That wrist numbness and pain is extremely frustrating. Definitely try using an ergonomic mouse if you work on a laptop.

I agree with resting the hand, and wearing a simple wrist brace while typing really helped ease my pain.
My daughter got this due to endless coding for her IT job. I made her set an alarm to take a 5-minute break every hour to shake out her hands.
