I am desperately searching for a reason for why I have pain in both thumbs - and a way to get rid of it.
My doctor checked it out and says it doesn't look like arthritis and he has no idea what it is. A massage therapist I go to checked it and said the same thing.
Anyway both thumbs hurt, in the joints below the thumb and the area around that. I do use a computer a lot, but I am a right-handed mouser, and my left thumb hurts worse than my right.
I am wondering if I am doing something wrong in the way I hold my weights. I really noticed it today lying on my back on the step and doing bench press with dumbbells. The pressure on the "thumb crotch" area was really bothering me.
Thank you in advance to anyone who answers. Oh and I am nearly 51 now, thin, healthy and work out regularly and often, cardio, weights and flexibility. A total Cathe fan as well
