I forgot to answer your last question:
If your pain is due to a type of tendonitis, then yes...there are exercises you can do, as well as rest the area. I had to wear a removable splint on my wrist for about 4 weeks (day and night), as well as do some specific exercises given to me by the physical therapist. The pain took about 12 months to completely dissipate before I did not notice it any longer, whereas prior to the diagnosis, I was unable to pick up a carton of milk with my left hand because my thumb was too weak to grasp anything.
