Badly hurt Thumb
(3 discussions)
I was playing basketball when I caught a very hard pass…….Seems it hurt my thumb. It didn’t Jam it, its worse. All the other times I jammed my thumb it got better. But it still hurts. SHould I wrap it tight? If I go to the doctor she will fucking charge me 15 bucks and say “Sweety, just wrap it tight.”Help?

depends on if you over-extended it or if you pushed it in, or if you pushed it out. if you overextended it, wrap it, if you’ve pushed it in, it’ll heal, but if it got pulled out, then you might be in trouble. go see a doctor then.my retard friend says “put it in peanut butter.” don’t listen to him. He also says “put it in the fridge”still don’t listen to him. hes stupid.
Same here
: Help? I did the same thing cept somoen jammed mine when I was playing and just wait it out and wrap it for sure otherise ull prolly do something stupid and hurt it gain and u need the support. And it hurts when u hurt it again like a bitch
advice
: Help?You may have dislocated the joint at the base of your thumb…in which case you’d need to see a hand therapist for splinting and rehab. You’ve probably already tried rest/ice… So the best idea is to get a referral to see a occupational therapist who specializes in hand therapy
