Some handle wings may help

hi
The ulnar nerve runs in the palm right were we put our hands I found some handle bar grips that put the pressure on your fingers more than the palm.
oddly enough you point the wing part up and grip it more like a tennis racket this keeps your palm off the bar.

quote (Specialized's BG Comfort Locking Grips (Short) are medically designed to prevent numbness and pain and built for use with twist shifters. The key contact areas feature soft-density rubber on the ulnar nerve pads, a medium-density rubber on the grip bodies, and an inner core of firm density rubber)
