A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bad Thumb Driver: If you've seen a doctor(hopefully a hand specialist),what did he do?? If not, it's should be immobilized for a while. Tendons and ligaments take a long time to heal,especially if you use them a lot.Try this: get some one-inch surgical tape at Rite Aid and drape it over the joint, tape ends pointing down, like a shawl. Put on a few layers. There! Snug! Feel better? If not, get back to that doctor!!
