Pain in thumb after accident.

2017-03-04 08:26:37
I recently met with an accident, where I got several injuries. Since then, I am unable to bend or straighten my thumb. When I try to hold something or grip something, there is severe pain. Soon after the accident there was a bit of swelling but after a few days my finger got better. However I am unable to use it for day to day activities.. Kindly need advise doctor.
