I had the EXACT same thing earlier this year. My thumb started clicking and hurt a lot especially when it got bent and then I would open it. I found exercises for trigger thumb on YouTube. Did them. Also wore a plastic thumb brace I bought on Amazon. Keeping it in place by wrapping it with first aid tape.It took 6 months months but after being careful not to bend too much and the brace stop it from getting bent forcefully it just went away. Usually accompanied by arthritis in the lower thumb joint.
