Q: Bizarre Thumb Problem
asked by: truckstophero on July 28th, 2005

Exactly 7 months ago, while living in taiwan, I woke up one morning and my thumb was feeling weird. It felt weird when I bent it down towards my hand, or when I hit the tip of it (for example when putting something into a bag if my thumb caught the side).

I have been to 2 doctors who poke it around and say nothing is wrong. This has been going on now for more than half a year and its irritating as it doesnt seem ot be improving at all. Will I need surgery, does anyone have similar problems or know of any cures?

Thumb Problem
If I were you I would see an orthopedist. I had to have my thumb operated on. It is not that bad
