Correct Lord, but it can also cause pain in the elbow as well. Because the same tendons and muscles that pass through the passage on your wrist (the carpal tunnel) also curl around the inside of your elbow. This is another good warning sign.
My brother just recently had surgery for this, as he was experiencing pain in his elbow and wrists. Work related so, CHACHING!! :D
