If they're blistered and still hurting, you should go see a doc.
The thumb is a little blistery, but not horrible. I went to sleep with my hand resting on the ice pack, and when I woke up again (or more accurately, was woken up) at 3:00, it was a lot better. You're probably right about the nerves thawing, sucking it up is so much easier when you're passed out. I still can't really do anything with it, but it doesn't hurt when it's just sitting there anymore.
