!!!URGENT!!! SWELLING THUMB!?
-
Earlier today, I was outside and some kids around me were playing soccer. One kid, I guess not having noticed how close I was, drop kicks the ball right at my hand. It way not sound very painful, but it was. I now have a very stiff and swollen thumb. The entire thing is about 1/6th wider than my other, non-swollen thumb and is hard to the touch. On the palm side (the side that would touch your palm if you folded toward your palm), there are purple bruises at the joint where your thumb meets the rest of your hand, the other joint (where my thumb usually bend about 55 degrees if it could), and in between. There is also a bruise on the 'web' between the thumb and index finger. The bruises seem to be getting worse, and it's ability to move over the first hour got less and less. I can now barely move it. Thanks, Connor

i'm not a doctor, so i can't really give you any amazing advice, but i'll try to help you out best i can. phone the doctor, and tell them of the situation. they will hopefully give you some advice on what to do about it. because you can barely move it, something could be broken or badly injured in your thumb. run it under the cold tap for a while, or use an ice pack, or one of the cold gel packs that you put in the fridge. that might help it. sorry i can't be of more help!
ummmm.....congratulations??? I don't see a question in there. I'd guess you want to either know what to do to take care of it....or what we think is wrong with it. Ice it, and it's prob just a bruise, maybe a sprain.
