(now I'm recovering a whiplash after a little car accident) and my thumb sprain a few years ago, not so good, but shoulder yes, that one I made the exercises with the elastic band, day and day and day. It tended to get out of the joint and was very limiting. That's why I know my neck and thumb will be ok, I am super determined, and at least to get it better. Rehab works.
