The chief controllable factor causing carpal tunnel syndrome is an imbalance in the strength of the forearms. The back/upper side of the forearms is much stronger than the front/lower side of the forearms. This put the nerves and tendons in the wrist under tension. To solve - exercise. I do Yoga. Also watch how you type. Try to avoid pulling your fingers back up. Instead keep your wrists flat. See a good physical therapist.
