You got way better advice on this thread than I can give; I know nothing about the topic.
However, in solidarity I just had this happen to me two weeks ago. Slept wrong and woke up with severe pain and immobility. Could not use the hand at all. Reading the advice here I definitely could have done more -I did nothing except use an old wrist brace I had, mostly to remind myself to rest. That said, it cleared up in 3 or 4 days without seeing a doctor.
Obviously not advice, just some pep talk. Keep an eye on it obviously, but I hope this helps some.
