Sprained thumb

2020-07-11 15:28:29
I think my thumb got sprained and I'm not able to bend my thumb finger. All I did was keeping mehendi to my hands and kept the finger stiff to let it dry. After 1 hr or so, I felt pain and not able to bend my thumb finger. It is now seems to be swelled too. What can I do to ease the pain on bending and swelling?

1. Start by dipping hand in warm water, gently exercise your thumb. Do this for 5 mins, thrice daily for 2 weeks. 2. Take Cap tendocare forte once daily and Enzomac forte twice daily for 2 weeks. 3. Don't do heavy work with thumb for 10days, gradually start working with your thumb.
