Callous from bass clarinet thumb rest

Author: Danova
Date: 2011-09-16 23:45

I have a large callous on my right thumb from the thumb rest on my bass clarinet. It's gotten worse now that marching season is going on. My neckstrap takes some weight off my thumb, but I've noticed it causing the skin to become rough and slightly painful. There's also a bump. I'm using a rubber pencil grip on the rest, but it doesn't quite work all the way. Is there anything I can do to my instrument or myself that can help me with this problem? I can post photos if needed. Thanks.
