I have all types of nerve problems and to honest with you padded gloves make it worse. If you have too much pressure in a particular the idea is to relieve the pressue. IF you wedge anything between the area of pressure your going to create more pressure. Try some gloves with padding in the area with the least amount of pressure. This will slightly lift the high pressure area away from the bar. If I could find a pair of old straight Profile BMX bars I'd be all set. Good luck.
