Hurt thumb

[Tilt A Whirl]

Ok overnight my thumb seemed to get worse the problem is at the knuckle were the thumb connects to my hand.
overnight it got red it swelled up a bit and it got stiffer.
i put ice on it for a while but its no difference

Told you it would take a bit,DO NOT PUT HEAT ON IT. Do me a favor and check for a nick or a cut around the joint,because it could be an infection.

how long will it take i got a fight on sat.
no cut the swelling is a little red
EDIT: would it be bad if i popped that knuckle?

Yes it would bad if you popped it,it'll only swell worse. I do not recomend this at all,but if you still want to go,have them wrap your tape as tight as they can to imobilize the thumb so you cant re-injure it during the fight. Also before the commish gets in to check your wraps,bath it in ambesol,it will pre-numb it up,its legal,but the commish is going to want a look at your thumb if they see you doing it.Because the only time you do it is if you know your guy is hurt.
