i hurt my thumb, i kind of leaned/fell on my hand and my thumb joint made a big ccRACK noise and then it hurt pretty bad for a couple of hours. now it doesn't hurt much anymore, there's just kind of a pressure feeling and if i move it that does hurt. i can move the thumb but not all the way like normal. it's a little swollen but not much.

can i wait til tomorrow to have it checked by a doctor? or do i need to have it checked at all? what should i do with it

just in case it's broken, be prepared for a smartass comment by your doctor
they don't really grasp the concept of not running to them the moment you think something is wrong

but yeah, I totally would wait too, could just be very badly sprained and to be fair, your doctor won't do much about that either

i saw a doctor today and he said it didn't seem broken, but he still sent me for an x-ray to make sure. but turns out i won't get the x-ray results until a week from now lmao? weird

i keep panicking a little but even if it was broken you can't die from a broken thumb right?? right?

It does sound like a potential fracture though or maybe it's possible you dislocated a joint? Idk I'm not a doctor, but I've done a similar stupid thing. Landed on my hand with my butt and fractured my middle finger.

hmm, yeah. i guess we'll find out from the x-ray? the doctor moved my thumb around and felt all the bones and stuff, and apparently it seemed stable / not broken, but idk how much you can tell from the outside

You really can't unless it's serious enough that trying to move it makes it obvious.
I had full use of that finger and they were surprised when they found the fracture.

Going off that though I doubt it's a dislocation actually. He would've found that by moving your thumb around.

So its likely staved - this is damage to the ligaments in your thumb which can result in a little swelling and/or pain/ pressure espeically around the joint of the thumb.

However, signs that it is broken is bruising and swelling, as your thumb bone is so close to the skinĀ  it will show visibly that it is broken by becoming red/purple around the broke/ fractured area - these symptoms can take up to 3 days to show (most people its within hours)

Im not a doctor but Im trained in sports injuries AND have broken all of my fingers during sportsĀ
