A member asked:
What are the symptoms of a grade 2 rcl sprain in the thumb? it's been 7 weeks since i fell and haven't been to the dr yet.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Moderate sprain.: A grade 1 RCL sprain is mild & not associated with loss of the thumb MCP joint stability. A grade 2 sprain usually involves a lot of pain & swelling. There could be bruising around the thumb & possible laxity of the joint. A grade 3 sprain can be very painful, & there is complete disruption of the joint, leading to joint instability. See a doctor for proper Dx & Rx of your thumb sprain.
