igloomaster, I developed hand numbness on a 200 mile ride last summer... I kept on riding and did not regain full function for about 2 months. Do not push your luck!
Your symptoms do not sound like carpal tunnel. It is probably ulnar and/or median neuropraxia as edtrek suggests.
Do yourself a favor and get a professional bike fitting. Also invest in some good padded gloves and extra bar padding.
