Numbness on thumb following injury
Three days ago I hurt my hand at work while trying to catch a dog. I have friction burns and bruising on my wrist and hand from the braided nylon leash as it caught on my wrist. I thought the tightness on the back of my hand was from the friction burn but today I noticed that only the skin on my hand between my thumb and wrist was numb. Should I be worried about it or is it just healing?
