		<description>I also have a clubbed thumb on just my left hand, and I cant stand it!
Does anyone know if it is hereditary????
No one in my family has it, and I do NOT want to pass it on!
Also, I have always had it, both of my thumbs used to be &quot;clubbed&quot; but somehow only 1 is now.... strange right? (about a year ago I noticed)
So, my thumbs are 2 completely different sizes, and even though i hate it, some of my friends get a real kick out of it! lol</description>

		<description>My sister has one clubbed thumb (although it is known affectionately to our family as her stub thumb) She&#039;s a bit self conscious about it, but I think it&#039;s pretty cute :) Only her left thumb is clubbed, we thought that her right one was normal because she sucked it her whole life, but when I heard that the bones of clubbed thumbs are different than normal ones I&#039;m assume that&#039;s not the case. I don&#039;t think there is anyone else in our family who has this. Our family is of European descent, Mainly Irish I believe, because of our last name, but probably many other things as well.</description>

		<description>Eve,
I&#039;m not a doctor but if you sent me a pic of your thumbs, I could digitally change them to show you what they would look like if they weren&#039;t clubbed.  Sorry thats the best I can do! lol

If interested, shoot me an email at toethumbsrock@hotmail.com</description>

		<description>I am sorry to hear that Russian Guy! I was so freaked out about them when I was younger. My husband says their cute and when I see them on others I think &quot;you know they are cute&quot; It&#039;s all in your frame of mind. I don&#039;t have a problem with them at all anymore.

Ukrainian on Mama&#039;s side and  Russian on my Papa&#039;s side.

Love &amp; Light

		<description>This is not a joke or a troll comment, but I have a question - an ex of mine had these thumbs, never knew till today that this was a fairly common trait and has a name. His penis looked just like his thumbs - is this common among men with clubbed thumbs?</description>
