Playing football and landed on my hand jamming my thumb.
Playing football and landed on my hand jamming my thumb. Trainer thinks I have a ucl sprain. Whole hand has been bruised and swollen for a week. Is there a chance I tore it or did something worse than a sprain? How much bruising should a sprained ucl have? And how much mobility would I have with complete tear of ucl?

Hello! While playing football a shot came into contact with my right thumb last sunday and since then I am experiencing a weak grip with my thumb along with limited motion. Just to make sure there was no fracture I went though an X ray of my hand and observed no fracture . Can you help me Thanks Regards
I was playing around with my friend and he bit my hand pretty hard between the top of the hand and the thumb and now my top side of my hand into the pinky and whole side of the thumb area are numb. There was no puncture wLund, it s just puffy and numb. What can I do to relieve this?
I have pain in my palm and it looks like the nerve is bulging. The pain is also in my forearm and elbow . I play bass guitar and it happened after I had hit my hand between the index finger and thumb with a hammer..accidentally of course during a home project; then a couple days later at band practice the muscles between my index finger and thumb and my palm really cramped..like a charlie horse. As the weeks went by - 3 weeks to be axact, I then could not grip the bass neck or play and thats when I noticed the pain down my arm to the elbow.
