What do you do when your thumb joint hurts 2 months after injury?

Thumb/wrist injury, please help!?

• Alright so I was skateboarding down a hill and the board slid from under me. i stuck my left hand out to catch my fall. Right now my arm is shaking and whenever i try to stretch my thumb it hurts, even typing this made my thumb ache. It hurts down by the wrist where you can feel your thumb end. I have no clue if its dislocated, broken, or if its a wrist injury. Please provide any help for me to relieve the pain until i go to the doctors tomorrow. If you need any more info just say so and ill try to tell you as much as possible. Thanks again

• Answer:

  i hope you are icing your hand? 20 mins on ..20 mins off..until you can get to the doctor.. can you bend your wrist and thumb..if so ..i don't think its broken ..you probably jammed your thumb ..don' t you skaeboarders wear some kind of wrist guards??? ouch!
