You might have developed "carpal tunnel synrdrome" which is common in people using PC. Get this evalutaed and corrected. Practice work ergonomics to avoid future problems.

Rest your wrists properly while working on the comp. That should solve your issue.

They say that you need to follow a proper posture at work. So do talk to an occupational therapist about it.
