Treat it with an ice poultice.

Ouchhh! I did this years ago it was sore for at least 6 months. The best thing is to get a splint and keep it on your thumb it will be sore for along time but the splint will help!

Alternate hot and cold ALL DAY. Keep icing it. Apply a splint before you go to sleep. Icing is the most important thing.
