Hi,

Hi there. This could be carpal tunnel syndrome due to entrapment of median nerve. it is caused by prolonged use of computer or thumb and index finger as in improper position of arm and wrist can result in mouse elbow. Application of ice pack, anti-inflammatory drugs, wearing wrist braces, stretching and strengthening exercises when the pain subsides and modification of the way you click mouse goes a long way in avoiding further injury and treating the present symptoms. This could also be a compressive neuropathy due to compressive of cervical nerve roots by a prolapsed intervertebral disc causing the hand weakness. consult a neurologist at the earliest to help you with these. Take care.
