Pulled a muscle below or on my.... THUMB???
Hey All,
I went on Vacay for 10 days, got back on Tuesday, started feeling a bit of strain on my right below my right thumb (probably from lifting suitcases, or carrying bags around the mile walk u need to do in the airport). Anyway, it was nothing and I said "hey, probably got this before".
Then comes last night... My thumb started hurting enough to wake me up a few times. To be specific, the pain is located on the Flexor Pollicus Brevis and Abductor Pollicus Brevis muscles below my right thumb. (This is just from a picture I googled).
Anyway it's a complete pain in the ass and I can't put ANY pressure on it. Even opening a car door has me screaming. I tried taking some tylenol, advil, aleave... I also tried soaking my hand in hot water, using a rub like A535.
Any thoughts on what this could be or what I should do? I'm icing it now...
