Pain in right thumb.
My thumb suddenly started paining a week back. The pain sometimes ebbs but keeps coming back. During the pain, I cannot perform basic functions like holding a bottle, forming a fist. There is no pain when I keep my thumb idle, but when i try to bend, move or press my thumb to my palm, i get the pain.
