'Sorry for the delay! We're having 'April showers' here, and I'm having internet outages constantly :( It looks like this is about 6-7 hours after your post.

Ice is the #1 first "go to" and can/should be used for any blunt trauma. The application of cold 'pushes blood away from the surface' to prevent swelling and blood accumulation that can (worse case scenario) swell and split the skin, or (more typically) cause an accumulation of blood that make it much more difficult to get the 'flow' we need to heal quickly and effectively. Ice should be applied 'indirectly' (as in, don't put ice cubes directly on your skin and hold them there; rather, put the ice in a bag, washcloth, towel, etc.)

Hold the ice-pack on the area approximately 3-8 minutes (some recommend longer), then take it off a few minutes and reapply...continue doing this until the swelling is down (on Dr. Schulze s new video, he says up to 12 hours). So if you awaken and see this (and there's still swelling), take the ice pack to bed with you and continue applying it sporadically

During this phase (and all phases), the Deep Tissue Repair Oil is fantastic - the cayenne & ginger increase circulation; the menthol also increases circulation & provides a cooling effect (beneficial for pain) and also helps to oil to assimilate deeply into the tissue; the wintergreen eases pain; the trio of arnica, calendula & st johns wort are (well, here's a quote from Dr. Schulze )..."This dynamic, medicinal trio of powerful herbs are famous worldwide for healing breaks, bruises and trauma to bone, muscle, soft tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints and speeding up the healing process".

I agree 100% with the castor oil & BF&C...and would use the Deep Tissue before both. But if you didn't do that, don't worry about it...just get the Deep Tissue on there as soon as you can.

After you've reduced the swelling, then is the time to go to hot/cold to increase the circulation of healing blood. As typical, start with hot, do 2 minutes hot, 2 minutes cold (1 repetition) and do 7-8 repetitions. The application of hot can increase swelling, so get the swelling under control before going to the hot/cold therapy.

With all the fantastic healing work you've been doing (and how completely you've been nourishing your body & blood), I doubt this will result in a "broken hand". In fact, it's likely to heal & restore MUCH more quickly than you can imagine.

Let me know how it's going and more details as soon as you can (what did you smash it with? break the skin? what part of your thumb? can you move it normally? pain level? pain when moving only now? or consistent pain? and anything else you can think of), and as soon as I'm awake again I'll do my best to get you more information (if you need it).

Blessings,

Uny
