Pretty sure not, I tore a finger ligament two years ago and lost a summer of riding and now have slightly deformed ring finger. Just very sore and tender during a ride and progressively gets worst along the ride. Hoping to cure it before it does some real damage.
i've broken that area a couple times - it usually was from a thumb jam. fighting, moto accident, snowboarding,
it is still annoying if i think about it (i've broken both) - when i had my last injury x-rayed, the dr asked me about it.
it was really just annoying, and i immobilized it when not doing anything the last couple times i did it (probably been 20 years?)
twist shift for the winter. or single speed.

I had pain after chipping a bone during cyclocross. Went to twist shift and have no problems.

Gamekeeper's Thumb is usually the second joint (so the interwebs say), but maybe it's a similar extension of the tendons?

I had this after a thumb plant on a pow day at MRG, but it was so long ago that I forget which joint it was. I can swear it was the third, but my memory isn't what it used to be. When Ski Patrol told me how it got it's name, I was done for the day. Clearly, I could never be a gamekeeper.

there are two common thumb injuries from skiing - skiers thumb is a UCL tear (robin) from a splay of the hand - the other is a jamb (which i had)
if you have full range, and strength, but just soreness - maybe tendonitis?
my cx injury is a full tear of the extensor tendon for the thumb - it doesn't do anything except hurt, and be annoying. it is getting less "hurting" now that it has been 12 weeks. certain moves bother it (like shifting the mtb)

Ive had thumb pain on lower palm side for about a year . Had it x-rayed - nothing . MRI will be next but I just deal with it like all my other age related crap.

No pain on left hand whatsoever
However finger tips and joints still sore on right hand. I think it's the glove on the right. A little short on the fingers but fits like a glove on the left. Not uncommon for a larger hand for the dominant side.
Which got me thinking. Has anyone tried custom gloves or altered a pair? I've got freakish Hobbit like hands and feet where my palms are thick but with short fingers. For golf, I wear cadet large.
