      I fell backwards and support my body from left hand by palm opened. So my left thumb got sprained maybe by getting stretched opened outwards during that fall. It's been 8 weeks it's paining and now causing thumb trigger at front joint but pain is also at bottom base joint of the thumb if i press with finger . I can't open tight bottles or jars with left hand and thumb starts to pain and also drop things due to less support from that thumb. Will this help it get well the taping technique.

    I have a doubt, I sprained the thumb of my right hand in soccer training (I was an archer) and it made sense, I mean when I hit it against something very strong it hurts, so I wanted to know if this bandage would serve me in volleyball so that it does not hurt so much when hitting the ball.

    To help keep circulation and not have the tape too tight, you should cut the tape each time you have finished a rotation... I believe you are taping too much at once and thus cutting off circulation...

      Hi the tape I use is from IDM called Maxiplast. You can also use all of the larger tape providers as they will have they own version.
      The main type I used in this video is the 25mm Elastic Adhesive Bandage.
      I then provide additional support using 12.5 mm rigid tape - I personally rip 38mm rigid into strips as I don't always have access to the smaller version in the clinic
      Hope this helps

    My thumb hurts everytime I rotate it and I don't know when it started but it could have something to do with me playing basketball and shooting a lot so I guess my question is can you use this tape when shooting around and playing basketball and will it help stop the pain?

    • @BodyFitPhysiotherapy
      @BodyFitPhysiotherapy  3 роки тому

      Hi Talemwa if the tape helps the pain or not is a trial thing. Realistically you want to know what the underlying injury is so that you can determine if you are doing further damage or not. Therefore you do really need to see your local health professional to get a diagnosis and plan. This taping technique may be part of that treatment plan but will not be the sole treatment for it
