    I did
    It was excruciatingly painful, Right to the base of the thumb and hurting the whole of the arm. I couldn't even touch my arm or thumb as it felt horribly bruised and tender and well sensitive.
    It only occurs when I wear clothes that are tight or contact with the skin, I am in full time work now, bending and stretching and lifting and doing all kinds of stuff I would have never have believed. Just lay off any constrictive clothing on the "Special" arm......You can do anything!
