I've literally never had this problem. Maybe years of gaming has just made my thumbs tougher than most, but I don't have a problem with that.

I've had this since 2011 (misdiagnosed by a doctor who wouldn't listen to me and insisted it was Raynaud's) and I can't use the standard sticks on the Dualsense or Dualshock 4 for my left thumb and had to replace them with convex sticks.

I've gotten injections to reduce the inflammation and they basically just messed up my hands for a month with no tangible benefit. Specialists who deal with these problems deal with older patients with far more serious conditions, and don't take it seriously at all.

Be careful not to overdo it guys because if you get this you're screwed. Voltarol Gel (anti-inflammatory drug) is somewhat useful for me.

Heck, how many of us here are in our 40's. Most of us will probably be gaming into our 90's should we live that long
