Last year a buddy and I took a 1300 mile trip around Colorado /r/dualsport ride on a Husqvarna 701 and a Yamaha WR250R. Here's a photo of the gear from last year.
This year we are adding one person (riding a monster, brand new, KTM 1090 Adventure R) to the crew and moving a little farther west to see some of the amazing sites in Utah. I put together a 1500 mile route, and will tack on White Rim Trail (if we can get passes) and wander around in Beef Basin for a bit.
A few of my friends have started using Polar Steps, so I've setup a trip and will try to keep it updated. I also maintain a simple website and will post photos on my flickr account.
Now, on to the fun, because sorting out gear and packing is half the fun of a /r/motocamping trip.
I'm involved in volunteer search and rescue (/r/searchandrescue) so a lot of this gear comes from my callout pack and extended incident command packs. The more experienced riders will notice that I'm lacking any tools, spares, tube slime, etc. I'm fortunate enough to be riding with 2 other riders that are packing all that jazz.
Two mottos:

navigation

medical and hygiene

sleeping
inclement weather

motorcycle

When backpacking with a small to moderately sized group (2-4 people), instead of having everyone cook individually at each meal, do some group meals where each person is responsible for cooking 1 meal for the entire group (this is good especially for dinners but works for breakfasts as well). You'd be surprised with some people can come up with when they are cooking for the whole group, and doing a larger meal makes it easier to incorporate certain food items that one wouldn't normally think of to bring backpacking. It's a little bit more work for the person in charge of cooking during each meal, but it also gives people a chance to relax and have "meals off" where they don't have to worry about preparing food for themselves. It's also a nice little social thing that can help a lot with group cohesiveness.
Cheese will last a surprisingly long time in the backcountry if you refrain from touching it. The bacteria that makes cheese go bad quickly can be found on your hands. Keep cheese in a ziplock bag, and hold it through the bag while you cut off only what you need for each meal. I've had cheese last up to 6 or 7 days in the backcountry ~85 degree day time temperatures without any problems this way. It gets a little sweaty, but it doesn't go bad as quickly.
This extension handle lets you pop jiffy pop over a campfire without burning your knuckles. IMO, it is one of the single greatest inventions for camping, ever.
Aluminum splints are cheap and a worthwhile addition to any first aid kit. One alone makes splinting far easier that it would be otherwise (anyone who has taken a wilderness first aid course can attest that it's not easy trying to make effective splints out of tent poles and spare clothing). With two aluminum splints and some duct tape, one can easily immobilize just about any broken limb or sprained joint on any extremity.
A few wet wipes (kept in a ziplock bag so that they don't dry out) can be really, really nice to have if and when needed. (These need to be carried out, however, as they won't decompose quickly like toilet paper does.)
High, wispy clouds (cirrus clouds) usually mean that it will rain within 24 hours. Scattered, low puffy clouds (cumulus clouds) usually mean that fair weather will persist for at least a few more hours (although watch out for any rapid vertical development into cumulonimbus clouds, which are indicative of thunderstorms).
Remember that lightning can strike as much as 10 miles away from a thunderstorm. If you can hear thunder, you may be vulnerable- even if you can't see the lightning itself.
Program local emergency contact numbers into your phone prior to your trip. 911 will always get you help, but when you are in the backcountry, it sometimes isn't the fastest way to get help. When leaving an itinerary with a trusted person who will summon help if you don't return on time, make sure that they have access to these numbers as well.
Bugs are always worse (swarming in greater quantities) on more humid days. On days with high pressure and low humidity, they aren't as bad.
Getting your pack weight down is certainly key to increasing your enjoyment of backpacking, but pack weight alone isn't always everything. Sometimes a pack that weighs 3 pounds will carry the same load far more comfortably than a pack that weighs 2 pounds will. Find a system that works for you. If a sub-10 pound base weight is your thing, more power to you. If carrying 40 pounds suits you and you can do it comfortably (and many people can!), then that's OK too. Most importantly, make sure that you aren't compromising your safety in the interest of lessening the weight on your back (make sure that you aren't compromising your safety by increasing the weight on your back, too!).
I think that about sums it all up. I'm drawing a blank on anything else useful (but will add other things if I think of them). I hope at least a few people are able to find something useful out of this (very long) list! :-)
Honestly, I'd suggest taking a break. As a fellow sufferer of chronic pain, it's kind of like that joke:
Patient: "Doctor, it hurts when I..."
Doctor: "Well you should probably stop doing that."
Especially given the left analog thumb pain, that kind of strain gets worse if you don't give it time to heal. And by "give it time" I mean "as long as it takes." Sorry.
Get yourself a decent thumb/wrist splint. I use this one as needed, and the Mueller brand one is highly rated. Use it, stabilize your thumb and wrist, and give it time to heal. Alternate icing down your hand and wrist, and using a heating pad on the area.
But a different controller isn't the solution here. You need to lay off it. If you must game while injured, take it easy. Play a tablet game, or something a bit more chill on the hands, like a tower defense wave style game, or a turn based JRPG or something.
And make sure your work/programming setup is ergonomic. Proper height with your arms L-braced and resting naturally, shoulders back, top of screen at or near eye level. Don't risk things like tendonitis, carpal tunnel, and RSI over something as paltry as gaming. Your health is more important than that.
Not quite what you're looking for but maybe you can cover your fingertips with these?

I came across them on r/calmhands and they are pretty watertight on me. Depending on long your nails are (we're talking at over an inch here), they may not cover far enough down? I wear acrylics sometimes and it's a a little odd until I re-adjust.
They also stick a bit to dry hair. Shampoo amd and conditiomer may slick them though
K.I.S.S. Keep It Simple, Stupid. Words to live by!
Gloves. Just your standard Nitrile gloves. I have a box in my closet with about 5 pair in my truck. Although with Texas summers here, I'd bet they've melted together by now. I should really check on that...
Safety Glasses Any brand will do. Just look for ANSI Z87.1. You'll probably never use them, or 90% of what's in your bag, but they're nice to have on hand.
Knife w/seat belt cutter & window punch. This is mine. I keep it on my trucks visor when I'm driving, and on me when I'm not. Cheap and useful. A little big though.
Simple Breathing mask. Always good to have around.
Gauze Rolls & Gauze Pads. I've used these a couple times, all on myself. I have the uncanny ability to fall when running outdoors. It's truly a gift.
Large SAM Splint. Surprisingly I've used two in only a year of building my kit. Once for myself, colles fracture from tripping, and the second time for a friend who slipped in my kitchen. We're not the most coordinated bunch.
And if you're feeling adventuress (sp?), Emergency Blanket, Cold Pack, & a Hot Pack. These aren't necessary, but nice to have if you have some extra $$$ to burn.
This is all i carry in my truck medical wise. It's also a good idea to have a flashlight on your vehicle or in the bag. Don't waste money on anything "fancy". You'll never use them and if you do you'll probably get sued.
I received a pre-stocked jump bag from a family member as a gift for getting my EMT cert. Came with OPA's, C-Collar, Adult/Pedi BVM, & a couple suture kits. These are no-no's. Good Samaritan laws won't protect you if you use these. DON'T BUY/USE THEM WHEN NOT ON A RIG! (The suture kits are another matter...just don't) I took these out of my bag completely.
TL;DR K.I.S.S. Avoid anything a non-EMS person couldn't use.

Anyway, just some suggestions. Hard to get too crazy on a budget. I'm sorry I missed the exchange but I signed up to give someone who gets screwed something so I'm sure I'm gonna help someone out.
They are reusable, bendable, radiopaque splints. They are the standard for EMS and wilderness medicine. There are many tutorials on how to properly use them. Here is a good start:

Always better to build one yourself.
Here's mine. Might give you some ideas.
6x6 Med Pouch (Modified with fingernail polish)
Not all of this fits inside the med pouch itself. It's meant for quick access to the critical items.
You may want to also look into SAM splints, they’re pretty cheap and can be formed to be useful for essentially any splinting situation. I would also recommend getting triangle bandages, they could help you cut weight as they can be used for a tourniquet, a sling, makeshift traction device (for femur fractures), combined w/ SAM splint a makeshift C-Collar... the list goes on and on! I’m sure there are YouTube videos for teaching some of those skills! That being said, look into an Outdoor Emergency Care or Wilderness First Responder course if you really wanna up your game!

Lol maybe with these?
They've been in my "saved for later" cart for awhile now, so I haven't been able to try them myself yet, but I know they work for some people!
Same thing happened to me but it bent it closed too hard and tore the ligament on the top of my finger. Luckily I could wear these and was still able to play.
Really need to stop making capsule for a week or 2 let my hand heal
That's a good idea. Is it the tendon? Occasionally I'll get tendonitis in my thumb/wrist, and this brace is really good for that and helps a lot.

Large gauze pads or bandages and cloth first aid tape. In my experience most injuries that are not a sprained or broken limb are going to be large scrapes or cuts.
If you are worried about more serous injury, some quick-clot and some larger bandages. I carry an "Israeli" bandage which is designed for gunshot wounds. Unlikely I will need it for that, but I am more likely to see an accident with a knife, axe, or saw.
As others have said, a couple Ace type bandages and a SAM splint.
For less serious stuff, some moleskin (for blisters), burn cream, cortizone cream, and some OTC meds:
I also have some prescription pain killers left over from a surgery (Tylenol with codeine) and some indomethacin ( anti-inflammation used to treat gout)
On top of that I always have at least a couple days of prescription meds.
A pretty cool thing is a SAM splint, which is aluminium sandwiched between foam, and can be versatilely moulded and cut to fit a lot of different positions and have a few different applications.
Besides nursing pillow I'll add this brace for your thumb tendonitis. I ended up with the same and two months in the brace healed it. Mueller Sports Medicine... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004YIFA2C?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

SOTech Viper. Add a hemostatic gauze like QuikClot if you want.
ITS Tallboy / Fatboy with Molly Stix for quick detach.
You can use straight branches for broken limbs, or add a SAM Splint, but it's pretty bulky. You can also get the 18" versions or cut the 36" down to size.
Plus training. You can't just carry these without knowing how to safely use them.

maybe these might work
I bought [this thumb brace](http://www.Mueller.com/ Sports Medicine Reversible Thumb Stabilizer, Black, Measure Around Wrist- Fits 5.5 - 10.5 Inches https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004YIFA2C/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_IzkTzbX7SYC9Y) for this reason.
I have the same problem, I was injured during the summer and I used this one https://www.amazon.com/Mueller-Medicine-Reversible-Stabilizer-Measure/dp/B004YIFA2C?th=1. Unfortunately I lost it and I re-injured my thumb so I've been taping it again, but I just ordered another one and I can't wait to get it. You should definitely try it.
I'm 6 months past an A2 tear and almost back to baseline. It is frustrating. Pegboard using "bombs" (see here) were good for power after the initial tear. I fully immobilized the finger with tape for a couple of months, then switched to this. You should be able to climb fairly hard open-handed, but crimps will shut you down for a while (I'm just starting to crimp again). Outside, I switched to trad and did a lot more traversing than usual indoors. You could try working towards some strength goals like 1 arm pull up or front levers. Finally, I kept some therapy puddy around to strengthen the pulley when I wasn't climbing.
I had the same injury and was able to come close to 100% after 4 months. I stopped climbing during this time. Here's what I did (per instructions from my occupational therapist).
Note: Warm up your fingers before doing these exercises. You could dip your fingers in warm water, do these exercises after a hot shower, use heating pads, etc.
Start out with these 2 exercises:
Wear these rings around the PIP joint at night when you sleep. Make sure you get the right size.
After about 2-3 weeks of the above exercises, I did the below once a day in addition to the DIP exercises:
I also did the exercises per Esther Smith's advice on the training beta podcast.
WEAR TAPE WHEN YOU CLIMB
Hope this helps.
Wrist straps?
Not a permanent solution but this might help

You need to definitely put some thought into what you would need medically in a survival situation where you can't get to a hospital fast.
For example:
Quikclot to stop excessive bleeding until you can get medical help.
Sam Splint in case of a broken arm or leg.
If you break your arm or get a wound deep enough to where your wound won't stop bleeding, it doesn't matter how good you are at casting a net or purifying water.
I just ordered these so I can't attest to their quality but their ratings are fine on Amazon.
thumb guard
gloves
I totally agree with this! I would just carry multiple triangular bandages, as there are so many purposes for them, they are very light, and if OP has a large bag, it can accommodate them. I would completely agree about the splinting, unless you are going to be in very rural or undeveloped areas, in which case I'd through in a SAM splint.
Oh, also I would carry some sort of cutting implement, (NOT FOR TISSUE,) and not necessarily even a knife, maybe just some mini trauma shears. IDK...
Edit: Specific to the rural/wilderness, throw in a space blanket/emergency blanket what have you.

If you want something to support a broken limb, check out a Sam Splint. Super light and compact, and great in a pinch to keep a flappy arm a little more stable.
The one showed here where 2 straps of Velcro go around the top of your finger. There’s a long piece of aluminum underneath as well. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07J1L3QPV?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
What kind of wrist brace? I used to have carpal tunnel so I starting wearing one of those braces. After researching my symptoms more it seems like a thumb stabilizer is what I need. This one arrives today.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004YIFA2C/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Sports finger sleeves or the knit compression kind, or finger cots.
This is the Mind Reader bed desk thing:

(They're not affiliate links afaik, bought each of these with my own money and these are the ones that actually helped.)
Yep very similar to that. It went a little bit further up my palm though, like this https://www.amazon.com/Mueller-Medicine-Reversible-Stabilizer-Measure/dp/B004YIFA2C/ref=sr_1_4_s_it?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1487081213&sr=1-4&keywords=thumb%2Bbrace&th=1
This?
No, like one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Anbenlife-Finger-Splints-Immobilization-Ventilation/dp/B072L3RC8V/ref=sr_1_4?crid=12DGU7XMEAHV8&keywords=finger+splint&qid=1568817948&sprefix=finger+splint%2Caps%2C175&sr=8-4
Even cheaper is to buy something called a Sam splint. Basically the exact same thing but meant for splinting bones.
It's the strange irony that the medical version of this device cost 1/3 what the auto version costs.
https://www.amazon.com/SAM-Rolled-Splint-Orange-Blue/dp/B001J5H92C
I think this will do it.
Depending on the size and location I put bandaid (liquid if necessary) on it then wear a hand sleeve like this: https://www.amazon.com/Grappz-Finger-Alternative-Compression-Gloves/dp/B07CG5CJ1F
Yeah, I think something like this works better splint
Try and get the jack guy from the other comment to talk about this too because he is going to march with them. But for me, definitely LONG TONES, LIP SLURS AND BREATHING EXERCISES!!! Those are the keys to being a good brass player in general. Start working on finding/practicing your Technical and Lyrical Etudes. Also I have found these things to work well for finger dexterity. It helps with fast passages and things like that.
http://www.amazon.com/Hemiplegia-Exercise-Trainers-Rehabilitation-Equipment/dp/B00KW4ZVIU
For breathing do in 4 out 8, in 4 out 10 all the way out to 16. Then in 2 out 4, in 2 out 6 all the way to 10. The do the same but with in for 1. They will teach you more breathing exercises at the camps too.Try to get your hands on a marching euph... that'll be the best!
In a mass casualty situation, I would completely ignore anyone that needed CPR and focus on the bleeders. The time you spend giving one person CPR could be used stabilizing a dozen people who are bleeding.
For extremities, the most useful thing is a tourniquet. I prefer one with a windlass like a [CAT] (https://www.amazon.com/C--Combat-Application-Tourniquet-GENERATION/dp/B018R73OWI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468623443&sr=8-1&keywords=gen+7+cat+tourniquet) or [SOFTT] (https://www.amazon.com/Tac-Med-Solutions-SOFTT-W-Tourniquet/dp/B00E3W3BK2/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1468623620&sr=8-2&keywords=sof-t) over a [TK4] (https://www.amazon.com/H-Associates-TK4-Tourniquet/dp/B003YHGKF0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468623679&sr=8-1&keywords=tk4+tourniquet) or [SWAT] (https://www.amazon.com/SWAT-T-Tourniquet-Black-1-Count/dp/B003IWNOVO/ref=sr_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1468623735&sr=8-2&keywords=swat+tourniquet).
For injuries to the abdomen, armpit, crotch, or neck; you will want a homeostatic agent. [Combat Gauze] (https://www.amazon.com/QuickClot-Combat-Gauze-Z-Fold/dp/B001E1CLTC/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1468623859&sr=8-1&keywords=combat+gauze) is the way to go here, it is much better than powdered QuickClot.
For penetrating chest trauma (also called 'sucking chest wounds'), you need a large, occlusive bandage on both the entry and exit. In clinical testing of chest seals, the [Halo] (https://www.amazon.com/Progressive-Medical-Performance-Occlusive-Dressing/dp/B003VSORKC/ref=sr_1_3_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1468624256&sr=8-3&keywords=chest+seal) and [Hyfin] (https://www.amazon.com/North-American-Rescue-Hyfin-Chest/dp/B00KQS2NGK/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1468624483&sr=8-1&keywords=hyfin) drastically outperformed the [Asherman] (https://www.amazon.com/Rusch-Inc-849100-Asherman-Chest/dp/B0015TE9N4/ref=sr_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1468624546&sr=8-2&keywords=asherman+chest+seal).
I also personally have a [decompression needle] (http://www.rescue-essentials.com/h-h-needle-decompression-kit-tpak/) to treat tension pneumothorax, but I advise you not to get it unless you have specific training on it.
For general bleeding the [Israeli bandage] (https://www.amazon.com/Israeli-Bandage-Shipped-Israel-Inches/dp/B00JKMPJBY/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1468625201&sr=8-2-spons&keywords=israeli+bandage&psc=1) is way better than other bandages.
You will also want an [NPA] (https://www.amazon.com/Nasopharyngeal-Airway-Fr-9-3mm-Surgilube/dp/B003950R2E/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1468625347&sr=8-1&keywords=nasal+pharyngeal+airway) to help keep an open airway.
Edit, I forgot that you are also going to want a good pair of [trauma shears] (https://www.amazon.com/Madison-Supply-Premium-Fluoride-Scissors/dp/B00YFG1U86/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468625730&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=trauma+shears&psc=1).
Some other things to consider are rubber gloves, [Kerlix] (https://www.amazon.com/Original-Kerlix-Sterile-Bandage-Rolls/dp/B00UAULWR0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468626013&sr=8-1&keywords=kerlix), [cravats] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HBG726G/ref=ox_sc_mini_detail?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=AR9BYY7RS0Q08), [medical tape] (https://www.amazon.com/Durapore-Medical-Tape-Silk-yards/dp/B000C4O7GC/ref=sr_1_2_s_it?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1468626363&sr=1-2&keywords=medical+tape), a [SAM splint] (https://www.amazon.com/SAM-Rolled-Splint-Orange-Blue/dp/B001J5H92C/ref=sr_1_1_s_it?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1468626238&sr=1-1&keywords=sam+splint), and a [space blanket] (https://www.amazon.com/Emergency-Mylar-Blankets-84-52/dp/B004356WLY/ref=sr_1_1_s_it?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1468626282&sr=1-1&keywords=space+blanket).
I definitely have De Quervain's tenosynovitis (mommy wrist/thumb), so I got this one and when I wear it to bed it helps me out a lot. I'll still get a flare up now and then, but overall it is tons better.
I'll sell these to you for $10 a piece
What did the brace look like? This?
I have EDS and many of us struggle with finger joint dislocations. I've seen many swear by these knuckle splints (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GK8WX6A/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_tL4jDb9WS84PQ). Never used them myself but they might be worth a try. Best of luck!
