calling all docs...

well really PT's but I guess y'all pretty much share general info...

i think i may have done something to my adductor pollicis muscle in my hand. You know the little area between your thumb and your index finger. From what i've been reading sounds like trigger finger, but becuase i don't usually handle "triggers" of any kind, it's more likely beecause i tend to hook my thumb on the strap of my backpack (and that thing can get heavy!) 

It's not really so bad, but is hard to get a good grip on bottles or cans and ...

Any ideas on how to fix it?

  1. I guess it's too late for a preventative measure but check it out... http://www.promoteot.org/AI_BackpackAwareness.html
    Don't aggravate it b/c you don't want to make it worse. Heat pack? Ice? Streches?
