Thumb pain... plase help quickly!?!


Question: Thumb pain!.!.!. plase help quickly!!?
I slipped and rested my whole weight on my right thumb, and bent it in the right direction, but quickly!. It hurst a bit now, and it's slightly swollen!. I've put ice on it, but is there anything else I can do!? I can bend it and wiggle it ok, so it's not broken!.

Thanks a lot x

Oh yeah, it made a clicking noise when I hurt it, but only the kind that your knee does when you get up!.!.!.!.!. I don't know if that means anything!? It doesn't hurt enough to be broken!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
It may be sprained!. You will need to get a finger splint (at any pharmacy) and just go easy on it!. You should feel better in a week!. If not, you may have broken it!. Take some Ibuprofen too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It could be sprained and you need a finger splint but it could possibly be something else too!. But go see a doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

well you could have fractured it ! I am not a doctor or anything and I think you better go see a doctor !!!! cause you need both of your hands!!!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Go get an x-ray to be sure and keep ice on itWww@Answer-Health@Com
