Could be a tight muscle in your upper back. This happens to folks who slouch at the keyboard. Carpal tunnel and other issues are not particularly an intuitive result of this, but it can be a cause. Make sure you are sitting in an ergonomic manner, feet on the floor, straight back and with the screen at eye level. There are good exercises to stretch your hand and advice to ice and rest your hand on the internet. If it continues, consult your doctor or an orthopedic specialist in hands.

Can a pinched nerve in the neck cause electrical shocks in the brain?

Pinched nerves usually cause symptoms either in their immediate vicinity or downstream (in an arm due to a pinched nerve in the neck area). It is highly unlikely that "weird sensations in the brain" would result from a pinched nerve. However, pain and anxiety associated with a pinched nerve could make a person feel uncomfortable and unlike his or her usual self.
