For all of you not-a-doctors out there who might have some experience… about a week ago my thumb joint nearest the nail started cracking. It started out as just cracking with no pain involved but it seems to have gotten worse in that it will lock up and be somewhat painful when I crack it.
I can go hours without paying any attention to it and not having a problem but then if I think about it I can pretty much make it happen.
If I catch myself and I feel it coming on I can pull on it gently and alleviate the problem.
Any suggestions? Would it help to tape it up for a couple days so that I can’t bend it?
