My thumb has been numb for 2 weeks not getting any better?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Time to see Dr: Did anything happen then or did it just suddenly get numb, any weakness or other symptoms. Might be simple as carpal tunnel syndrome but start with your pcp to evaluate it, you may be referred to a specialist for other studies.
