Author Topic: cant tell if i sprained or broke thumb  (Read 676 times)

so i went to put my hands in my pockets, and somehow my thumb caught on it and bent the wrong way. i felt some sort of crack. i can move it just fine, but there is pain, redness and possible swelling. i dont know what it is.

Probably sprained but really, go to the hospital.

go see a doctor maybe
or put a splint on it or something

probably just twisted it the wrong way and it just made a crack

is there any unusual bulges?

well if it were broken you probably wouldn't be able to move it at all so...

Probably a sprain. It will probably be near 100% in a couple weeks. Ice it and take ibuprofen


It's not broken.
expert doctor here

when I broke my wrist I was still able to move it and it was just really swollen and red when it first happened

i broke my thumb once

hurt so freaking bad

pull it outwards. if it hangs in the skin its broken!
