Anyone Else Have Clubbed Thumbs?

Post Reply New Topic

I recently looked it up online, and it even has a fancy medical name: "Brachydactyly type D" It's supposed to be dominant, but no one i know of in my family has it other than me It doesn't cause any issues at all, i just think it's interesting because it's unusual.

So, yeah, anyone else?

Here's mine:

No. I didn't know what a clubbed thumb was, until you showed us.

No but, I can bend my thumbs over backwards at a 90 degree angle.

Actually, I have the opposite - thumbs that are unusually long. My mom said that when I was a baby, they were about as long as my other fingers. Now they line up with the 2nd knuckle of my little fingers.

Yup, I do have clumsy thumbs. And so has my mother and my little brother. And my grandfather.

I would like to throw up an image to show you, but I don't know how to do it :/

Oh crap, what on earth did i just say?!
Sorry guys, it's like 2:15 am here and Im pretty tired.

Ill try explain it in another Way. I would like to upload a picture of it, but i dont know how to.

That sounds better lol

I don't have clubbed thumbs, but I can't straighten out my little fingers. it's a weird gene I have. Only the men in my family have it. I can also put my right leg behind my head. I can do both too, but I tend to fall on my back like a turtle.
