Never took long for my thumb to be back to normal, 7 to 10 days.
But I think you have wrist pain because you are trying to do weights while you have an injury. I would quit the weights until that improves.

I agree with this. Sounds like you may have sprained your thumb. It used to happen to me a lot when I was in gymnastics. It never took longer than two weeks to completely go away. It still happens to me once in a while (maybe its easier to sprain having done it so many times) but it doesn't take much, lifting something too heavy, or catching myself fall, to have it happen again. It just happened last week and I have no idea what I did, but it was exactly the pain you describe. In two days it was completely gone. I wouldn't be too worried unless the pain doesn't go away.
