Arm rest or no arm rest?

I've been diagnosed with moderate CTS in my right arm and mild in my left, and the plan right now is to do everything outside of surgery.

I work a desk job and work from home. Since I don't want to put pressure on my elbows, I removed the armrests from my office chair. However, having my elbow hang the whole day with frequent mouse use makes my elbow feel "funny" as well. My OT just said I should consider putting the elbow rests back on and just wear an elbow pad.

What have you tried, and how did it go? Thanks in advance.
