Hello guys, I have a question, for the past couple weeks I have been having thumb pain/stiffness, however, it is only in the morning when I wake up where I feel this, not during the day or any activities such as osu!. I've been taking a break from osu!standard despite this since I feel it could worsen, but was wondering if anyone else on here has had something similar?

what hand is it on, your tapping or your cursor hand. also do you use a tablet or a mouse?

Tapping hand and I play Tablet, I suspect its due to the way I offload strain to my thumb as it moves around a decent amount every time I play speed stuff but im not sure.

Do you have it in a fixed, stiff position when you play?

also whats your tablet area, because it makes a difference

I never had anything similar because I never play osu in the morning, otherwise I'm washed up

Yeah, Typically I tense my thumb and curve it kinda but it definitely is stiff when I play speed otherwise its normal

Maybe that could still be the cause of your thumb pain. I don't know how intense you tense your thumb or how much speed you play, so maybe try playing with your thumb in a relaxed state? No tensing or uncomfortable positions.
