Since everyone else is sharing, I hurt my thumb shoving balled up paper into a shoe.
This video was so helpful, I had to watch it a few times to get the figure 8 part down, but wow this feels so great once you do! Thank you for taking the time to share this information with everyone :)
For anyone who was also having a tough time with the spica figure 8 part (maybe it was just me, idk):
-It starts in which direction you start the wrapping when anchoring your wrist, if the start of the bandage is on your inner wrist (like if you're doing it yourself and don't have extra hands) it needs to go upwards on the back of your wrist (side with pinky to side with thumb) and around twice.
-Then, as if you're about to wrap your wrist a 3rd time, you run it up along the "thumb palm" part of your hand and then between your index finger and thumb, and then you bring the bandage back down to finish that 3rd wrapping around your wrist (in the same direction you would have gone if you didn't wrap your thumb), and then do this one more time.
I hope this helps anyone who was confused in that part (took me longer than I'd like to admit to figure it out, lol). :)
128 people fixed their thumbs while 12 just made it worse and 102,848 people are still trying to figure it out
Coldhardnipps i keep working oh well
Ha!! Just spent twenty minutes figuring it out but well worth it. Now to see if I can do this twice in a row...
EXCELLENT! I'm 70 and still pump iron but some wicked arthritis in my thumb and wrist. Can't believe the relief I get now. THANKS!
Every one is saying they sprained their thumb playing sports, I was trying to grab my dogs leash so she couldn't get away, I hit my thumb on the concrete

Nice video! It helped cuz I sprained my thumb or partially tore a ligament playing volleyball back in november, and it hasn't healed yet. And this past Saturday I did the same thing and it hurts so bad. So this helped me so much. Thanks!
thank you !! I'm training to be an asl interpreter and i injured my thumb area (de quer something-or-other) because of a combo of and my favorite hobbies all involving repetitive movements (video games, scrapbook, journaling, oragami, etc) and i can't see a doctor until Thursday, so this was super super helpful!!
De Quervain tenosynovitis. It’s inflammation of the tendon from improper lifting techniques. Instead of just lifting by flicking your hand/wrist, try lifting with the entire forearm.
Thank you very much for the techniques, this will definitely help me recover.
Thank you for teaching me how to wrap a thumb sprain, I recently while skating vertical ramps smacked it off my board trying to get up off the ramp.
Yours sincerely

Was in a bike accident, mcp joint has had chronic pain for 4 weeks now, x-ray reports show no visible fracture or dislocation but pain hasn't subsided, hopefully I'll get some relief here, might be post traumatic arthritis, though the pain has remained constant for 4 weeks now post trauma so I'm not sure
is it advisable to wear bandage and play?
thanks this video help alot with my thumb :-)
yes thank you!
Thank you
Thanks it helped
Thanks I went skating and sprained my thumb the wrong just said to ice and take ibuprofen but it still hit to move
THANK YOU.
I hurt my hand because i was taken by the wind and fell 7-8 feet down to fall where there is big, sharp stones with face first. The doctors say that they are unsure if it's sprained or broken. And I don't have a bandage or a cast. But I think it's broken because I have broken my foot before and it feels just as bad. This happened yesterday. Any tips?
Thank you! Jammed my thumb going for a rebound in basketball last night

Since everyone's telling their stories, I lost my balance while trying to catch my Chewbacca squishmallow and was trying to regain it while running (kept falling forward which led me to continuously put a foot forward). There was a concrete pillar in front of me (I was still in the store) so I used my hands to cushion and push to change the direction i would fall and avoid smashing my head on concrete. I caught Chewy tho 🙈✨
Do people take time off work for a sprained thumb?
OK, I did this, but I can still move the top of my thumb. is that ok?
I only sprain my fingers in basketball and when I did get one on my thumb it hurts so much
i sprained my thumb about 3 weeks ago and its still quite sore, and can't bend it back further than dead straight. is this normal or have i lost a slight angle i can bend my thumb. also its still very sore nearly a month after i fell off my bike.

For how long do you have to keep the bandage?
Usually (assuming it doesn’t get dirty) you should keep it on for around 5 days.

i sprained my thumb about a year ago and i still have pain there when i use certain strength in a position. i did not take well care of it after injury and continued to work. Will this be permanent? is there any rehabs to help?
do you still feel pain?
slammed a screwdriver into the space between thumb and forefinger - wrapping it like this to immobilize it is finally easing the pain.
I can't, it hurts too much to move my thumb
I sprained my thumb while giving thumbs up to all comments that said "thumbs up if you agree".

Thumb up if you wrapped your own thumb while watching this.
The only problem with elastic bandages is you have to be careful how tight you actually make it because even if it feels loose it is going to be really tight and you're going to lose feeling in your fingers
I like it "TIGHT" lol
