FAQ
Thumb Pain — Common Questions
The most common cause is De Quervain's tenosynovitis — irritation of the two tendons that run along the thumb side of the wrist. It hurts when you grip, lift or twist, and is common with heavy phone use, typing and in new mothers who lift their baby many times a day.
Yes. Scrolling and typing with the thumb for long periods repeatedly loads the thumb tendons and can bring on or worsen pain. Switching hands, using voice typing and taking regular breaks helps; we show you specific changes for your habits.
A thumb splint can help settle pain in the early, irritable phase, especially at night or during heavy tasks. It is a short-term aid — we combine it with exercises so the tendons get stronger rather than weaker.
Mild cases often improve within a few weeks once the aggravating activity is managed. Pain that has lasted months usually needs a longer, graded loading programme. We give you a realistic estimate after the assessment.
You can book directly — no referral is needed. A physiotherapist assesses how the problem behaves and treats it with hands-on therapy and exercise. If anything in your assessment suggests you need scans, medication or a specialist's opinion, we tell you and refer you to the right doctor.
Your first visit is a ₹500 assessment at our C-Scheme clinic; treatment sessions start at ₹600. How many sessions you need depends on what we find — we give you a clear plan and estimate at the first visit, so there are no surprises.
