Need advice

My mum (50yo) was recently diagnosed with carpal tunnel and i was wondering if i can get some advice on how to alleviate her pain. I did read some articles online on carpal tunnel syndrome but it sounds so clinical and distant for me. None of my friends and family had carpal tunnel so I don’t really know much about this.

Would love to know if there’s anything that can make her life easier. She works in an office so lots of typing done everyday. Also is there any chores that she should avoid and can she carry heavy thing.

Last week, she cant raise her hands because its too painful for her. Is that a normal thing or should i be more concerned? Thanks ahead for the advices and tips!!
