It sounds like you might have carpal tunnel syndrome, which does result from a pinched nerve. I recommend getting some wrist braces & wearing them at night. If you let it go too long it will get worse & you may need surgery. A nerve conduction velocity test can help give you a diagnosis. I got some braces that allow a bit of movement & wearing them at night has stopped/dulled the pain & tingling enough that I can knit again. Sometimes I even wear them while knitting. Best of luck!
