Left thumb pain is unusual. Could you post a picture of your left hand position?

When you rest the bell on a stool, you may be leaning forward to the mouthpiece, which may throw your left arm into an unusual and ultimately painful position. Try resting the bell on one or the other knee, or lay it between your knees.

A physical therapist will see immediately where any strain comes from. Find one who specializes in wind instrument players.
