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.

Yes, I’ve only had 3 visits so far. I’m going to PT that specializes in hand therapy. Is it normal for my whole hand to still be a little swollen and all my fingers pretty stiff? I work on the home exercises daily but the fingers just don’t want to bend and are all swollen at the joints.
