Today while I was working on rudiments on my practice pad, I experienced something slightly worrying. I felt something, that wasn't quite a pop but almost as if something slipped, in the area right around the joint at the bottom of my thumb, and then felt a sharp pain centered in that spot but radiating somewhat into the side of my wrist. After that I waited and tried to play again but immediately felt more pain so I stopped. I then iced the area for around 15 minutes. For a few hours it was a little achey, and it has felt only slightly fatigued. Now, around 6 hours later, it feels almost normal again. Anyone else experience something similar/know what it is/have advice for treatment and prevention? I practice at least an hour and a half or more most days to keep up my chops, so figuring out what to do sooner rather than later would be best... Thanks!
