This pilot study seeks to investigate potential benefit in the use of Theraworx Foam in patients diagnosed with thumb CMC OA. Patients presenting to the upper extremity orthopedic surgery clinic for thumb/hand/wrist pain will be diagnosed by a Board Certified Hand Surgeon as per standard protocols. Patients who are recommended to follow a conservative treatment modality and are interested in participating in this study will be randomized into treatment or control groups. Both groups will undergo symptom assessment, strength testing, and range of motion testing prior to starting the standard conservative treatment of bracing. The treatment group will use the TheraWorx topical foam and the compression wrap nightly for 2 weeks for at least 6 hours per night. Control group will use a compression wrap for the same time period. Both groups will return at 1 and 2 weeks for repeat strength and range of motion testing and symptom assessment.
