How can I heal a jammed thumb?
Q. I was talking to my parents today about my thumb that I injured (not sure how) and they told me it sounds a lot like I jammed it. Well, it's hurting really bad and I don't want to be in pain for all of spring break... So I need to know if there is anyway to help it heal?
Asked by Nadare - Fri Apr 10 17:23:19 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. See your health care provider as soon as possible. Smashing fingers in car doors or desk drawers, or with hammers or baseballs, is all too common. If the injury involves only the end segment of the finger (the terminal phalanx) and doesn't involve a significant cut, the help of a doctor is seldom needed. Blood under the fingernail (subungual hematoma) is a painful problem that you can treat. If the injury doesn't involve other parts of the finger and if the finger can be moved easily, apply an ice pack for swelling and use acetaminophen, aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen for pain. And good luck.

How Do I Heal My Jammed Thumb ?
Q. A Couple Of Months Ago I Jammed My Finger Playing Volleyball. I Iced It For Awhile But That Didn't Seem To Help. Now My Thumb Still Hurts Every Now And Then. Help Please !
Asked by Little Lady - Sat Nov 21 17:53:56 2009 - - 1 Answers - 1 Comments
A. You didn't say exactly where it hurts but I'll try to figure it out. If you hurt it along the base of the thumb near the wrist then you could have a Bennet's fracture which needs to be treated in a cast if of course the fracture hasn't displaced. If it's a Rolando fracture along the base of your thumb then that definitely needs to be casted because the joint surface is totally messed up. Usually they put pins across it. If you broke it along the wrist at the base of the thumb then it could be a Scaphoid fracture and that needs to be casted for about three months or until it heals. They are a problem because the bone doesn't have a good blood supply so it can take forever to heal; sometimes take over six months to heal. If you tore… [cont.]

A. Sounds like it's jammed. You'll probably want to bandage it, and eventually, when you can, have a doctor look at it. Don't move it, it will heal in around 6 weeks. Don't do any softball or other sport during that time.
