How do you treat nerve pain?

I'm 26 years old, and I feel like I have nerve pain in the middle of my hand. What's the best way to treat this?

If nerve pain is recent, I recommend getting it evaluated ASAP. Time is important for best results. Often nerve pain in the hand is related to compression in the wrist. Sometimes physical therapy will cure it, sometimes surgery is needed. In any case, start with your PCP to get the ball rolling for a diagnosis and treatment plan.
