This morning I somehow jammed my thumb. It still hurts...but I don't know what's really wrong with it. Is it just still sore, or is it maybe broken? It's been hurting for about 7 hours now...it's killing me more every second!
What should I do? Should I go to the doctors or will it feel better in a few days?
I've had my fingers hurting before, but never this long and bad.

Wait a couple days and if it doesn't get better then go to the doctor. Try running it under some cold water and see if that helps.

Can you bend it, if you can, it's not broke.

I can bend it, but it hurts alot.

But I'll wait for a few days to see if it's better or not.

Sounds like you jammed it pretty good. Have a small ice pack on it. :)

Yeah take a paper towel and some ice and put it on it.

Take Ibuprofin. The Wonder Drug!!:nod:

I jammed it once, and I never went to the doctor, and ever since I've always had to crack it, to make it un-stiff.

Sounds like you stoved it pretty badly. I've done that a few times myself :eek:

Like others said, Ibuprofen and possibly an ice pack. :)
