What excersises can i do for a sprained thumb?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Let it heal: 'Sprained thumbs' generally need a period of rest and immobilization ( thumb 'spica' splint) for a couple of weeks for healing of the 'stretched' ligaments before you exersise. See your primary care physician . Good Luck!
