SoFlaJets Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 the last few months. It's my left hand-my guitar hand. What has been happening is my thumb locks into place making it really hard and painful to bend my top digit on my thumb. It's almost like the tendon is stuck or something. I've been trying everything and finally I heard from some people out there in horse country about this stuff they use on the horses called DMSO. FlJetsGirl sent away for a jar of it and I swear yesterday was the first time in months that I can bend my thumb w/o it killing me. here it is if anybody is having arthritis type problems http://www.luckyvitamin.com/item/?itemKey=66876&utm_source=googlebase&utm_medium=fpl&utm_term=NaturesGiftDMSOGelUnfragranced2oz&utm_content=66876&utm_campaign=googlebase&site=google_base Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32green Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Seriously, any numbness or tingling in that hand too? Especially at night? Could be carpal tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoFlaJets Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 Try taking glucosamine, you can buy it at walmart it works great on joints yup Tictac I am taking Osteo Bi-Flex which has 1500 milligrams of glucosamine in it-2 tabs a day. As to the "You should rest it" thing (which the doctor also told me to do) If I rest it then we don't eat and I can't cook dinner OR go back to the doctor next Thursday. He prescribed 600 mg of Ibuprofen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
