There are a few causes why a person's thumb will go wrinkly. One reason is by thumb sucking which some children do when they are younger. Another reason is that your hands may have been in water for a period of time.

When your thumb (or any other part of your body) is exposed to water for a prolonged period, it causes the outer layer of skin to absorb water and expand, which leads to the characteristic wrinkling effect. This wrinkling helps to improve grip in wet conditions by creating channels for the water to flow away.
