Thumb Sprain
Thursday, March 19, 2009 at 12:16AM This was supposed to go up yesterday, but for some reason it didn't go through when I sent it through the bberry.
Yes there is such a thing as a thump sprain. I've had it a few times before but always called it jamming my thumb.
Happened yesterday (Tuesday) while playing in a volleyball match, we lost all three games by the way, and I was setting on the incoming serve. I misjudged the ball and it was coming harder than I thought. I got the set up but in the process sprained my thumb.
I have another set of games tonight and am going to play. So I taped up my thumb and it came out pretty good! I usually just wrap the sports tape around my hand and it ends up looking like a boxers hand, but tis time I did it the proper way as I found the instructions online. I gotta say that this actually feels good with this on, I might just start taping up my hands all the time when I play now!
For some reason I actually like having this on my hand, I think it goes along the lines that one saying "chicks dig scars.". Well maybe they'll dig sports injuries too!
I can hear it now...
Hot girl: oh my what happened to your hand sexy boy?
Me: ahh I injured it while playing volleyball during the key play in the game which we ended up winning.
Hot girl: wow! Must be hard being a superstar, huh?
Me: absolutely but hey you gotta deal with what comes with it you know?
Hot girl: so what's a girl like me gotta do to get a date from a hot stud athlete like you?
The rest is history!

I tried to play with my sprained thumb last night an I played well with it. The only thing is that when your thumb is tapped up, you try to compensate for not being able to use it fully by using the other thumb more. So with my sets last night I was using my right hand to set more ...
Well it just so happened that I ended up spraining my right thumb too! It's not as bad as the left, but it's still a sprain. I was going to tape it up, but I wasn't sure if I wanted to go around with two hands tapped up like that.
Let's just hope they both heal for next weeks games!
