It appears that King is using a rubber band to support the base of his thumb to reduce pain. The surgical procedure to correct this is to take a tendon from another part of the body and graft it around the base of the thumb to increase the support somewhat like the rubber band does here.

What movement happens to the rubber band when you pluck it?
This specific rate of vibration is known as resonant frequency. All objects have a natural resonant frequency at which they vibrate. When plucked, a stretched rubber band will vibrate at its resonant frequency.
What do you feel when you hold a rubber band in your index fingers and move your hands apart?
Answer: You would feel a force of attraction between your hands.
When we stretch the rubber band using fingers?
When a rubber band is stretched, work is done on it , in course of which some amount of energy in the form of elastic potential energy (strain energy) is input into it. This increases the potential energy of the system. When the rubber band is released, the potential energy is quickly converted to kinetic energy.
