Wrist Pain

I am unable to relieve the wrist pain and neurological symptoms (tingling in the wrist and fingers) I'm having on my 59 cm. Specialized Sirrus Comp with flat handlebars. To relieve the symptoms, I was advised to use an extended handebar stem (130 mm.). I've also tried the handlebar stem angle at both its highest and lowest positions. And I've got the seat way back, as suggested for my 6 ft., 175 lb. body. I use Pearl Izumi gloves with maximum gel padding. I try to keep pressure off of my wrists when riding to the extent possible, but this can prove challenging. Any suggestions are appreciated.
