Hi there,
Thanks for your queiry.
You might have a foreign body inside your thumb.
You can meet your family physician or a general surgeon, who can just open it up and remove the foreign body if it there.
You can take analgesics like paracetamol and cleac the thumb with clean salt water.
Take care.
Hope this helps you.
