Thank you Dr Jo….. I’m a knitter/crocheter and am always feeling pain in what I now know is my CMC joint. With this pandemic, I’ve crafting every day and the pain has been constant … your exercises have helped alleviate this discomfort…..I must remember to do these everyday. Thank you.
That's why I'm here as well. Can't understand why the hand just holding the work is the one that hurts. Seems it should be the one holding the crochet hook.
I really thank you for posting this video. I hold my phone a lot on my left hand and trying to open a jar with my left hand it was fine! Except that the next day and days after my thumb felt dislocated. I don't know if it is my CMC. The pain t's at the base of my thumb. Help! I will try your exercises
Thank you SO much for making this video, and posting it! I am a veterinarian, and use my hands every day for surgery and treatments. Arthritis in my hand was beginning to make me worry that I couldn’t keep doing my work! These exercises are helping me already! You are a gem!
I'm so happy I found Dr Jo! I've had joint issues for years, and these really help. She's fun, easy to understand, and knows her stuff! Thank you so much. Ooh, I just saw another routine to the right I want to try!
GOOD ONES👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 MY CMC DOESNT HURT AS MUCH AS THE FIRST JOINT IN MY THUMB!! I HAD ALREADY BEEN DOING A COUPLE OF THESE EXERCISES….HAPPY TO KNOW THE OTHERS!!
worked like a charm thank you so much! I've been having pain on the thumb for some days now but after doing these exercises it immediately relieved me of my pain.
Adding this program to your wrist tendonitis plan. Your therapy makes for very effective daily recovery for grip strength training. Thanks for this great content.
I’ve had some pain in the middle of my thumb area from playing Cello for years and it’s been hurting my technique a lot but I haven’t considered that I might have arthritis because I’m pretty young (19 M), hopefully this will solve my problems 😁 Im really feeling the stretches at 1:30 and 2:50 with my pinky finger
I need my thumb to do my other pain relieving exercises. Thankfully, this video help me. I want to thank Dr. Jo for helping us with our pain relieve and entertaining us with her precious puppies.
Mindblown... My thumb felt weird after playing Video Games for the past couple days. (3-4 hours of gaming per day) I felt like I lost my Aim etc but these exercises really reliefed my thumb and it doesn't feel heavy anymore. Thank you so much!!!
You are a wonderful person; there are no words to thank you. During the pandemic, I had hip joint pain that was really unbearable, but your guidance helped me a lot. In the last 15 days, I also had thumb muscle pain, and as usual, your exercises are helping me a lot. God bless you Dr. ! With regards 🙏
Thank God! And Thank you sooo much! This helped relieve most of my pain immediately after I did these exercises while watching this video. I will continue to do these throughout the day. Thanks again. You help make life better. God bless you. 👍😊💐
Thanks so much for this! I am 37 years old, so no arthritis yet but I play the guitar and I generally suffer from every kind of guitarist-related tendonitis. My thumb is killing me the last days and I am hoping these exercises will help me get back to my practice routine.
Hey Doctor, amazing video thank you so much. I hyperextended my thumb 18 months age but I still experience pain but mainly through my UCL. Are there other exercises I can do to help manage the pain? Ive started physio and hoping I can reduce/eliminate the pain.
Just diagnosed with cubital tunnel left side, carpal tunnel bilaterally and thumb arthritis bilaterally. And dupuytrens contracture left pinkie. Of course the orthopedic surgeon recommended surgery from elbow to pinkie - not interested! I've started all the exercises you have online. Still early in my rehab but I'm very happy that you are out there giving good information.
Excellent stretches! To all the folks who want to try indoor climbing gym: take it slow. No more than 30 minutes for first several times. Or you can get a nice dose of Dequervain's. Dr. Jo is here to help...if you do.
Yet again I have an injury, and find several **extremely helpful** videos in your library of exercises when I search. Thanks again Dr Jo, you have treated like 10 of my problems
Great exercises. I was doing them as I watched your video and feel the tightness release. My occupation requires my left hand use alot and the thumb joint gets really tight at night so I'll be doing these regularly. Thanks you!
Lots of love and blessing to you! I got into a fight, and after that, my thumb started paining a bit. Earlier, I thought it would go away by its own, but it remained persistent. It's been more than 20 days now, and I was just thinking to see a physiotherapist tomorrow morning itself before I played this video. And guess what? Stretches shared by you has helped me a lot: now I'm feeling very less pain compared to earlier, and movement has also gone more relaxed and free of pain. Again, thanks a lot!
Love your vids, Dr Jo. My wife recommended you and like always, my wife's advice is very good. And, so is yours! G'day from Australia from us and our two doggies!
Its late, the rooms dark, found this by luck, and did all your thumb exercises... WOW, it really has alot of potential for helping my thump CMC discomfort. It started about 12 months ago and has progressively gotten worse. Hopefully your sharing this series of simple exercises will help. THANK YOU DR. JOE
I could hardly use my left hand due to thumb pain/lock thumb. I started doing your exercises and I am almost 100% pain free. thanks so much for what you do.
This video is soooo good for thumb stretching! As a controller gamer I always strain my thumb too much and having a little bit of pain there. After following this video along for just a single time relived my thumb a lot
Well my thumb started hurting from playing tennis for a long time everyday and i just stumbled on this video, did it now and it is great, I will keep doing this a couple of times a day and hope it improves, thank you for this video and for your amazing channel.
Thanks for the video! I'll try this to alleviate the soreness of my thumb. The last stretch you showed seems to hit the mark the best for me but I'll try them all. Thanks again! 😁
thanks that was great. i’ll do that every morning now. i’m a writer and i write a lot of orders at work with pens in uncomfortable situations sometimes and it’s been sore the past two days. these stretches helped!
Thank you Dr. Jo.. experienced a thumb cramp riding my motorcycle the first time.. on the throttle side, holding gently so surprised.. exercise and ice helped..
omg thank you so much I have well I don't know but I'm pretty positive I have tendonitis in my thumb for working it too much cuz I had tendonitis in my arm and I know what that feels like so I'm technically diagnosing myself with tendonitis in my thumb. And I did those exercises and it's actually working. Thank you so much.
The last one fixed my pain in moving thumb and stretching it .. I used to feel sudden resistance and clicking feeling in my hand on forearms and at the thumb area at certain angle of stretching my thumb.. thank you so much .. I thought my thumb has fractured but in reality it was just a case of misplaced stretching in forearms muscles causing stiffness in my thumb.
