Question Throttle thumb

Anyone here ever suffered from throttle thumb? I call it that for lack of a better term, but basically my throttle thumb hurts regularly now. It sometimes feels like it pops out of joint, and for some odd reason, it mostly hurts at night and when I wake up in the morning rather than after a ride. I'm trying to pinpoint the underlying cause...I know it could be the bike, but it's just so bizarre that it never hurts while I'm riding (or even just after a ride). Anyway, I'm just wondering if:
a) any of you have ever had throttle thumb issues
b) what was the pain/discomfort like
c) what did you do about it?

Thanks a ton! Allyson
