I've tried what many others have done, I turned my thumbrest around so that is a little higher on the clarinet. This seems to help. I also put some cork on the back in case I lost my add on, or I perferred just using the thumbrest alone. I cut a slice off a wine bottle cork, the curved part needed a little sanding to fit in the rest. I cut the piece a little large so that I wouldn't have to be exact when I used the contact cement, then sanded off the excess. A side benefit of this extra cork is that it makes the thumb rest thicker, and so an add on thumb rest, if it is rubber, fits more tightly. I very seldom lose the homemade thumb rest / hand cushion I mentioned earlier.
