Hello Curofians! Please check my case. I have pain in my thumb for 1 month after a minor injury. No wound, no swelling. Little redness is there, as you can see in the images, which should have disappeared by now as the injury was 1 month back. No pain on palpation. Pain occurs with even minor twisting of the thumb and also with percussion in the marked region. Please check the x-ray & clinical images from today. Age - 33 years No comorbidity No pain in other joints as such.
