It is called "bicyclist palsy" a form of carpal tunnel syndrome. Look it up. Don't ignore the symptoms. I go to the orthopedic doctor today to have the stitches taken out after carpal tunnel release surgery. It only gets worse. If you are still experiencing the symptoms after 2.5 weeks you need to see a doctor. I long ago switched to recumbents that don't put any pressure on your hands but it still got worse over the years until I could no longer ignore it.
