My experience:

1. Get ibuprofen for the pain.

2. Cut down on time at the machine. Use the minimum you need.

3. Stop using your phone/tablet so much.

4. Start walking as much as possible. You will not believe how much this helps.

5. Change your mouse. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wireless-Vertical-Ergonomic-Optical...

6. Go see a physio for advice on exercises.

7. Swimming for long-term strength and prevention.

It's worth adding that stress can be a significant factor, so if you're stressed you should address that too.
