How do you start rock climbing (one of the worst things to do with carpal tunnel) when you have carpal tunnel syndrome? Wouldn't the rock climbing/hand strengthening just make the situation much worse, quickly?

I’m not a physical therapist, so keep that in mind. The way I started was by doing hand strengthening with a grip trainer, coupled with some tendon stretches. My hands hurt the first few times, but you’ll find them getting stronger.
