Thumb swelling

2015-12-10 05:28:32
Last week my mom was cleaning the house and by putting stuff together, a wooden sharp hit her thumb. She ignored first then it's swelling, I consulted the doc and got medicines, now there's a pain in vain of the hand. Right now, I'm out of the town. Suggest me some measures.
