Okay so regardless of how the workman's comp goes I DID go see a doctor yesterday.

After an x-ray the doctor says I DO NOT have a fracture in my thumb so it is indeed all related to nerves making it seem like my hand is in pain.

So for work I can likely do the other part of the dishwashing so as to not use my thumb as the repetitive usage of my thumb is what is causing the issue.

So I do have usage of my right arm/hand just need to resist using my right thumb. So I COULD in theory work on images on my computer, but it'll be slow thanks to not being able to grip my mouse with my thumb. Of course drawing with a pencil is something I cannot do. =P

So yeah, in short, the rat trap simply caused an issue with the nerves in my thumb, and said nerve does go from my thumb and all the way through my arm causing the pain I am feeling. So right now I am taking something stringer than ordinary aspirin and I will see how work goes for me this Saturday.
