Haven't heard of one yet, but there will be due to all the text messages being typed with that joint. Inflammation due to repetitive stress. Kinda like carpal tunnel/ganglion cysts in wrists due to typing on computers. http://fitnessblurbs.com/cause-of-tingling-and-numbness-in-your-wrist/ http://fitnessblurbs.com/repetitive-stress-cause-for-ganglion-cysts-treatment-of-sac-filled-pain/

Yes it's called gamer's thumb or blackberry thumb I had it and now it's gone. You must put ice on the joint and rest your hand if the pain isn't gone in about 2 weeks you NEED TO TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR! You could have carpal tunnel syndrome and if it gets worst you could be messed up for life!
