It hurts my hand to make a thumbs up. I can move my arm and everything normal only thing hurts is doing thumbs up. Sensation lost on thumb. I fell in a gym with my hand flat . Please help

[@orthohubxyz]

Sorry to hear that David. If you have altered sensation then it is worth getting it checked out. Sorry but we do not offer clinical advice online.
