I had luck with the book "Its not carpal tunnel" or something -- http://bit.ly/Ocwy5 .. It suggested some stretches, one which worked in my case.

My pinky and half my ring finger were going numb from the bottom of my wrist sitting on either the desk or the laptop, and the exercise that worked for me involved holding my arm straight out away from me and repeatedly twisting it at my shoulder.

I found a good doctor in Chinatown, NY who recommended the book and suggested stretching daily instead of looking to any of the various surgeries suggested by other doctors.
