Right thumb bone and wrist bone hurts and makes popping noise. what could be the cause?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thumb,wrist: Unless there has been recent injury or sprain, possibilities include overuse syndrome, arthritis or tendinitis. You could try wearing a wrist brace and taking an anti-inflammatory medication like ibuprofen or naproxen for a week. If no improvement,I recommend consulting a hand specialist.
