Ouch

ever since i worked at the previous job my left thumb has been bothering me. i really believe it had to do with the data entry and the tendons got overused or something. anyway i've been hoping it would go away on its own for the past 3 weeks. i would take ibuprofin but that only helped temporarly. once it wore off the pain was back. when i woke up this morning i had the most pain i've had for that problem so far. there was hardly any mobility. i couldnt go on much longer with it being like that. so this afternoon i sought help. my doctor gave me a cortosine shot in my hand at the base of my thumb. i've had my share of those shots in my right foot and was expecting it to hurt as much as it does in my foot. thankfully it didnt hurt as much....then. now is a different story. the whole area around my thumb is stiff and mobility is very limited. it sorta feels like when i had surgery done on my other thumb and i had been given nerve blocker shots...once they wore off it was horrendous pain! i'm hoping that resting my hand overnight will help and tomorrow will be good as new!

but the question is.....should i try to sue for workmans comp from the other company since it was fine before working there??? ......(I'M JUST KIDDING)
