    Default Raw skin on Thumb

    I'm not sure if this has been posted or not but, I have been having troubles lately with my thumb-hole being too small or too big and so my thumb is being scraped up. I used to get raw skin on the back of the knuckle but now it is on the inside of my thumb closer to the palm. It stings a lot when trying to bowl and so I'm wondering how do I fix this, how was this caused, and how do I treat the raw skin of my thumb so I can at least bowl while it is healing.

    If it's down at the base of the thumb near the webbing it can either be not enough bevel. span too long. thumb too loose causing you to grip the ball.I would recomend seeing yur pro shop and have your fit checked. As far as bowling while healing you can use bowling tape from vise or turbo.. or skin patch

    skin patch is good, but it'll burn like a mother when using the adhesive. try the blue vise tape. very thin and not slippery. my son uses it and loves it. good luck
