This helped a lot. Endless thanks. Developed double thumb pain after marathoning some RPG's which usually involve constant running and collecting. (leaning on an analog stick for hours and button pressing). Took a break for 3-4 days, did these exercises = pain is gone.
Exactly! I've never felt pain like this with endless hours of GTA online, nfs or anything else.. but I play Modern warfare on xbox for the first time and in a few months my left thumb is dead🙄🙄 Been a Pc gamer for 17 years of my life playing FPS, and I pick up a controller during the lockdowns and now here I am looking up gaming injuries on TH-cam😖 go figure..
@@roberthardesty4133 Never been a fan of Resident evil, but I hear the latest one village is 🔥 fire? But an hour and half sounds like a pretty short game?? Btw, good luck with the thumbs though.. I'm into finger exercises now😅
Absolutely fantastic!!! I've been dealing with De Quervain tenosynovitis for almost 3 weeks now. I've been using ice, had shockwave done, physiotherapy massages, acupuncture... and these exercises are the only thing really making the difference for me. I repeated them 4-5 times only 1 day and 50% of the pain is already gone. Thank you for helping with this painful syndrome 🙏🙏🙏
You cured me.Thank you. I thought i was just old. It started when i was playing call of duty every night . It’s already way better after one day of you’re exercises.
I’m not a gamer but I’m having thumb joint pain. The pain even wakes me up during the night. Thank you for sharing this video. I’m going to save this video and try these exercises! 😃
Thanks matey, from the Land down under, much appreciated. i have felt there is a way to solve this issue i have suffered since the 80s! so sharing this on Facebook, If you don't mind!
Anyone googling for RSI exercises, these really work! I've been doing them for the last two weeks, and while my pain has not completely gone it is massively diminished, to the point where it's not really an issue any more. Thanks Dr. Harrison!
I just started playing the saxophone and my thumbs were in pain all day afterwards. The next day I find this video and it calmed down after trying it. :D very helpful and informative
Thanks for this Dr. Harrison. I have this only in my right thumb and though I do have an iPad and a DS, I remember feeling the pain while weeding and pruning in my garden. I have passed the weeding job on to my husband and I've been trying to avoid using my sore thumb with my handheld devices. I will do your exercises and see if I can get my thumb back in shape. Thanks, again.
Thank you, my thumbs have been hurting I didn't know how, I saw things about how gaming can hurt ur hand after to long so I decided to search for solutions, thank you my thumbs feel better, Doctor Levi
Wow! Thank you so much Doc! Have had "pain" (not bad, more like annoying) for years with left hand thumb. After doing this once, it helped immediatly. I usually don´t play nowdays with a gamepad/controller, but after 35 years of playing c64´s, nintendos, playstations, xboxes, PC´s, use of controller usually surprisingly fast starts that thumb-pain. Don´t wanna sound like tv shop but this was really easy, and think from nowon I just can´t live without this excersice no more. Also thanks alot for bringing up healthy gaming. Me myself is good bad example what kind of a problems can doing gaming "wrong" do.. Don´t have overweight thats not an issue, but my back is killing me. (there´s old snowboarding accident also..) But nowdays chairs are better, everything is better. I can just wonder how bad things could be if I havent been snowbording and biking my whole life. :P Salute, peace and love
Thank you for your video. I've been experiencing pain for months. It started when I was moving and cutting railroad ties for a retaining wall. I've been x-rayed and nothing is broken or cracked, but I still have pain around/near the Opponens pollicis and Abductor pollicis areas. These exercises seem to give me some relief.
Thanks for sharing these exercises, Dr Levi. As someone who spends waaaay too much time on the PC and Phone, this was super helpful! I haven't had any super intrusive pain, but I have noticed some pain here and there when I'm going too hard. Either way, incorporating these exercises will literally save me, thank you!!
Thank u so very much. I am not a gamer I work using a handheld device full-time and am in constant pain. The exercises shown here were easy to do and offered some immediate relief. Also I am very impressed and fully agree with ur suggestion of using a combination approach which blends eastern and western medicine. Eastern med treatment options have been around for thousands of years are underutilized in our country largely due to ignorance. Acupuncture is but one of them. Herbalism, acupressure, massage, and meditation are but a few. I urge people to step out of their comfort zones and to try different methods which work for them.
I am having thumb spasms Involuntarily as well, I notice its onset typically happens with stress or anxiety and perhaps through caffeine intake. Its really annoying because its such a ridiculous thing but it feels so strange - Thank you for the workouts!
This really helped. Got animal crossing recently and have been grinding playing until school starts... The back of my thumb hurts so bad because i also draw every few days.
Thanks Levi... I'm an elder, only have a smart phone, no computer, and I don't game, but my symptoms align with what you mention. Also, occassionally, the pain goes to my wrist, and the other side of my hand. I've begun stretches for tight forearms, and will include your exercises. Ice, ibuprofen is in the routine, and a skilled acupuncturist is a friend... Here goes.

Thank you so much doctor.
Dr levi is a boss. Thank you sir
Thanks Levi...
I'm an elder, only have a smart phone, no computer, and I don't game, but my symptoms align with what you mention.
Also, occassionally, the pain goes to my wrist, and the other side of my hand.
I've begun stretches for tight forearms, and will include your exercises.
Ice, ibuprofen is in the routine, and a skilled acupuncturist is a friend...
Here goes.
very educational. thank you doc
