Injured Left Thumb
For about the last week my thumb has been pretty sore. I can move it around without much discomfort but every time I push down (putting pressure) on it I get this sharp pain and when I hold something I get that pain. My Mom told me it sounded like tendonitis because she had it last year and her doctor told her to take aleve and minimize use of it. If that doesn’t help then ultimately get a cortizone shot. This is frustrating because while a thumb doesn’t sound that bad, it’s used a lot in lifting and I dont know if I should continue to lift or take some time off. If anyone has any experience, please let me know what you did or how long it took to heal. Thanks!
