    I have just come across your video and i'm pleased that i have. I have Osteoarthritis over many parts of my body and i take a lot of medication for it, however it doesn't seem to help at all with both of my thumb joints and a specialist is now talking about removing the thumb joints but said that i will still have pain! Nobody has ever mentioned exercises or taping of either my thumb and wrist joints. I am definitely ready to give this a go as it is so debilitating to have chronic pain especially in your hands. Thank you so much for the information and i will come back to you to let you know if it helped. Shirley from the UK.

    Thanks, @Dr. Yoni Whitten! As both a licensed massage therapist, a performing musician (drummer) and master craftsman, aches and pains in my MCP and CMC joints are causes for both concern and, occasionally, a good deal of anxiety. (As such, these exercises and taping instructions are especially helpful tonight, when one of my MCPs is recovering from yesterday’s busy MT schedule) Again, thanks!!!

    As always, I greatly appreciate your thorough explanations.
    I have pain in both spots that you showed. Should I alternate a couple of days to one spot and a couple to the other?
    Furthermore, I'm a movement instructor, so I move quite a bit and don't have any restrictions in mobility, just pain... Should I check anything else?
    Finally, do you have tips to address the root cause of the pain (a lot of the times at the shoulder girdle/ upper spine)?

    • @painfixprotocol
      @painfixprotocol  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      You're very welcome, Galit! Rather then alternating back and forth, I tend to focus on 1 area exclusively for a period of time. Only when that area is under control will I branch out to a second area.

    Thank you Doc! I have bad pain in the right thumb joint near the wrist, but it is closer to the inside of the fatty part of the hand. It is always sharp as hell and gets very restrictive with what I can do. Thumb braces don't seem to help. Adduction is hard to do and often causes it to happen in the first place. I never thought of using the tape. I think I'll try that. Thank you for your video! I do try to abduct it the best way I can with my other hand but it gets tricky to do. I think those exercises can help, too. But it is quite a lot of pain.

    Hi, I have pain in both areas of the thumb. I also have "squaring" on my right hand so it's progressed pretty far. Can this 3 stage plan help someone who is in the advanced stages? I'm going to buy some rock tape today and try the first, easier taping strategy on my hand. You do a really good job of explaining how to do everything!!

    • @painfixprotocol
      @painfixprotocol  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I bought some Rock Tape, but it is in the form of a roll of tape, versus smaller patches like you asked in this video.
    I am in need of correcting my thumb position as it is not possible now for me to straighten out my thumb due to the osteoarthritis....years of gripping and pulling with dental instruments is the main contributor to this problem. How can I get the smaller pieces of tape as you demonstrated with in the video?

    • @painfixprotocol
      @painfixprotocol  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi Gail, Sorry I should have explained that the Rock Tape will come in a roll and it's up to the individual to cut it to the right size for their application (and body size). Once you have a good pair of scissors and practice a little it ends up being much better this way b/c the roll lasts a lot longer than the pre-cut strips (which never seem to be the right length).

    Thanks I will try this as I have these symptoms...but also I think I've torn the tendon or ligaments under the base of the thumb nail Its a sharp kind of pain ,I play alot of video games with a controller and sometimes get a bit aggressive with movement .I took my sneaker off about a month ago with a weird grip and felt it tear .just wondering if I can tape that also somehow ,I did try with a thin peuce of tape while thumb was bent and put a bit of tension on it I just dont know if im doing it right...or weather it could be a more serious tendon tear that might need surgery or steroid injections ,any tips would be greatly appreciated thanks

    • @painfixprotocol
      @painfixprotocol  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Wow - It would take quite a lot to tear a ligament or tendon while removing your own shoe!
      The first step here would be to see a qualified practitioner in your area and get an accurate diagnosis. Once you know what the problem is, you will know how to treat it.

    I watched the interesting video.
    I am 64+ Years age. About 4 months back I started feeling pain in lower part of thumbs of both my hands during opening or closing of bottle cover by rotation. Even during putting eye drops when I press little tiny plastic bottle by my thumb and my forefinger, I feel pain at root of my thumb.
    I had also started feeling pain below inner ankles of both of my feet around same time about 4 months back.
    I had started watching your video primarily for thumb. But mentioned ankles problem also for wider perspective.
    Will these exercises be helpful
    Or
    Do I need to see any other video also, of yours in addition to this video?

    • @painfixprotocol
      @painfixprotocol  28 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The strategies here could be very helpful for you. However, the 4 month time frame is what stands out here. I would be very interested in what happened or what changed ~ 4 months ago.

  • @effthegop
    @effthegop 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Well, this was a great video! I'm too lazy to do any taping. I'm old and stubborn so I will simply continue to do construction work, play drums and rub my sore MFJ :)
    I will however stretch it out.

    • @painfixprotocol

      I'm glad you were able to take something away from this video. I think you'll find the stretching technique to be quite a bit more effective than rubbing the sore joint.

  • @jasonbelcourt8354

    I like these exercises, they help me alot! I have a question. The reason for these exercises is to push the muscle from lower thumb outwards to prevent it from pushing inwards. The two thumb braces that I have tried pushes the hand along with the thumb muscle inwards. Are these braces not good?

    • @painfixprotocol
      @painfixprotocol  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      So glad this video was helpful for you, Jason! There are situations where a brace like that may be helpful and appropriate. But the ultimate goal should be restore normal structure & function.

    @l.c.345 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    How is rock tape different than kinesio tape? I have pain in both areas, would you apply the tape at two different times or both at the same time? Also mine tends to be neuropathic pain and I drop things all the time because I can't hold on to them.

    • @painfixprotocol
      @painfixprotocol  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Good question. They are both kinesiology tape, they cost the same but Rock Tape is more flexible and stays on much longer - more bang for your buck. Taping multiple locations at the same time is just fine. Hope it helps!

    Thank you my friend I am the typical 60 year old guy who always played through pain and my hands been bothering me for about five years now because I work at a desk all day so when I get home I do a lot of woodworking and it’s all hand work and my thumb just hurt all the time and I’ve just got used to it and then I thought I bet there’s some bright young people out there who have figured out how to fix this and so I saw your video in another gentleman between the two of your videos are you both had some great ideas I especially love the tennis ball idea I’ve tried that myself actually I use my fist put my thumb on my fist and push down and wow that is some fun pain I Telya but it does loosen it up but I especially like the stretches on the tape idea do you recommend ice at all?

      I'm glad this was helpful for you, Mr. Koolio! I almost never use ice - and instead use light therapy which has many of the same benefits of ice, with none of the downside. Here's a video where I go into that - th-cam.com/video/QOF5oqZsY04/w-d-xo.html

      Taping is not typically a stand-alone strategy. It's one layer of a rehab program that can make people more comfortable and help accelerate recovery from physical medicine.

    So I have had pain In my right thumb in the spot you mentioned (closer to the wrist). This has not been gradual though. I injured my thumb a few months ago. I assumed I broke it and I didn’t get an X-ray or anything. I’ve broke a lot of fingers in my life. But this pain never went away. It hurts to try to spread my fingers out as much as possible and it hurts randomly when I do activities. Some simple like putting on tight gloves. Some more random movements I can’t replicate. It almost feels like something is catching inside my thumb then releasing. I’m not sure what it is but I don’t think arthritis is caused by an injury is it?

    • @painfixprotocol

It does feel hot to the touch and it looks swollen. It's been hot to the touch and swollen now for 6 weeks i thought it would have healed by now. not sure what to do for it.
