- Symptom
- This pain is caused by an arthrosis of CM joint of thumb, and is often found with athletic events that use balls, rackets, oars, still rings, iron bars, and golf clubs, with which strong opposition movements of the thumb are involved. (An opposition movement is a movement of the thumb toward the second or forth finger.) Since the carpal-metacarpal joint of the thumb is a saddle joint, the opposition movement of the thumb creates a strong stress when the first metacarpal bone is turned. This stress is the cause of the problem.
