I played guitar for five years and then stopped to concentrate on trombone for 6 years. For about 8 hours a day of practice and rehearsals, the trombone's weight was always on the left thumb. For the past year, whenever I tried to play guitar, my left thumb gets weak. After a few minutes I can't seem to grip the guitar neck anymore. I tried massaging the area around the thumb to see what's wrong and it feels sore right under the joint. Sometimes I can play longer but I can't play as well as before because the soreness is very distracting.
Anyone experience this sort of thing? Any ideas? Thanks
