Restriction of thumb movement
Today i got hit by a ball on the upper arms of my left hand, it was not painful. But after 2 hours or so i find out that the thumb of that hand has some limitations to movement. Can this happen because i got hit by a ball or anything else ?
I can't do full flex like other thumb, now typing is also difficult.
