Could it be possibly related to the sx I had in this thumb? I feel like the pain is the worst over the scar.
I ruptured that ligament snow skiing and it had to be completely rebuilt and reattached to the bone...
Just curious. I will seek an ortho consultant as you suggested but curious if it could be related.
