game keeper thumb?

Answers:
The injury got it's name from the game keepers pulling off the heads of the birds their hunters shot. It's a type of repetitive injury such as carpel tunnel syndrome. It occurs in the thumb 2nd joint and is essentially a dislocation. In it's most severe form it involves a fracture of the bone in the thumb (ski pole injury). Needs and xray and ortho.
