Please help! what is this long lasting thumb injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Xray: You would need an examination by a hand surgeon and an xray to make the diagnosis and then come up with the appropriate treatment. With no other info provided it is impossible to make any diagnosis. Some common diagnoses you can look up - basal joint arthritis, trigger thumb, ulnar collateral ligament tear, dequervain tendinitis.
