we ll its saturday and I decide to go to the skatepark and just my luck I dislocate my thumb ( I poped it back into place myself :thumbsup: ). Well tryouts start monday :chuckle: isnt that just perfect.



please anyone who has dislocated their thumb tell me when the swelling goes down and anything else that would help it. I am seeing my uncle a Physical Theripist tmm and i am icing it and keeping it elevated.

it should be fine if u popped it back in. Fight threw it duringtryouts !!!

[faceitoff]

Ice to reduce swelling.

ice it like faceitoff said, and when you play, tape it under your glove. i've played basketball games right after dislocating my thumbs and taping them back up. (did it twice). um. . . just make sure the tapes tight enough where it feels like you're going to lose your thumb and make sure to. . . its impossible to describe.

Yeah, injuries suck. Im having lower back problems due to underdeveloped muscles. Stupid growth spurt.

wow i did the same thing to my pinky about a week ago in basketball. i put it ack into place and iced it and it still hurt really bad. but then i said screw it bc lacrosse season is now and just didnt do anything and let it be. its pretty much fine now but it doesnt bend all the way

hand injuries arent that bad considering that i broke my leg a month befre tryouts and im not going to heal in time, and i cant even walk now

You want to talk injuries? This kid broke his femur..the first day of football practice. That was last year (fall season) and his leg still hasn't healed right. He can't play for basically this entire season.
