How To Deal With Pain In Between Index Finger And Thumb On Yhe Back Of Hand?
I hurt my hand on impact a month ago and it still really hurts. My right hand never swelled and I m pretty sure I haven t broken anything seeing as I haven t lost any movement. The pain is located in between the index and the thumb on the back of the hand. Certain movements such as turning a knob on a door and pulling down my steering wheel in a clockwise motion is most painful.

Hi,
Hot and cold therapy (take a bowl of lukewarm water and another of cold water, dip your hand in hot water for three mins then dip in cold water for one minutes, and do it 7-10 times). Avoid lifting anything heavy with in 2 weeks it will be fine.
Hope you will find the answer useful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
