I have a slight problem....whenever I play my euphonium, the left side (the part where the thumb meets the rest of the hang) of my hand always is in contact with my euphonium, so thus, it gets hurt due to the constant contact and gets bruised. Is this due to bad hand position? What can I do to remedy this? I have relatively small hands, so that is maybe why....maybe I have to lean it to the left to keep the horn in the proper position. Who knows. Any help would be great! Thanks! :)
