Workarounds for Arthritis in Left Thumb??
I have just been diagnosed with arthritis in my left thumb joints. Dang, was actually hoping it was fractured instead! Anyway, while we will medicate etc., are there workarounds for the tasks that bother my thumb, which are folding fabric/sheets, and hand sewing (as in binding etc.) where the left fingers and thumb anchor the work? The pinch grip thing is hard for me right now.
I figure this must be a common problem, so any tips or tricks for workarounds much appreciated.
Regards,
Janet
