Soreness in thumb

2018-04-16 07:16:02
Yesterday i did an ariel and put my hand down, didnt feel it at the time but shortly after i picked up something and my thumb was numb/ really swollen. The numbness has gone away but its still swollen ( the swelling has gone down a tiny bit ) and a sharp pain running through it - hard to do anything with it.
