A thumb sprain involves damage to the ligaments supporting the thumb joint, typically caused by sudden twisting or forceful bending of the thumb. This injury results in pain, swelling, and reduced thumb mobility, affecting various daily tasks that require thumb usage.

For thumb sprains, commonly used products include thumb splints or braces designed to provide support and limit movement, aiding in the healing process by stabilizing the injured ligaments. Additionally, compression wraps or tapes may be utilized to reduce swelling and provide added support for individuals managing thumb sprains during daily activities.
