...would you know why this only happens when I stand up when playing bass?


Because your are squeezing too hard to help balance the instrument. The amount of squeeze may not seem like a great deal — but your thumb hurts. Therefore I t is a big deal.

In both contexts I would see how lightly I could play with the left hand - making that the priority during practice — even if accuracy is affected.

Learning to be relaxed and easy may temporarily affect accuracy, but the payoff will be speed in the long run.
