I had same one last October. Eight months past now. I have pain but everyday I can do more things. I hope I can do tennis again someday. Hang in there.
It looks like you wrap/bandage was wrapped to tight. I had to loosen mine after surgery because of this.
Oh yes, that's a pretty typical look two days after! I have had both thumbs done, successfully. The question is, have you started therapy with a qualified hand therapist? They can provide SO much valuable information and coaching to get you on the right track.
