Unless a good physical therapist told you to use the stress ball, I'd stay away from it. If your problem was the result of mouse and keyboard use, a stress ball will only fatigue those same muscles, tendons and nerves even more. Stretches will likely serve you much better than doing more of the same squeezing and gripping motion that is injuring you.

I answered a previous carpal tunnel question in great detail over here, and it might be of help to you:
