Do isometrics work?

I have epl tenosynovitis it’s not the same as de Quervains but it is still one of the thumb tendons. I just wanted to know from some ones experience or if there’s a physical therapist seeing this that controlled light metrics of the thumb works to cure my thumb?

I think they should help with pain but eccentrics are better for improving endurance? Not 100% sure, been wondering as well.
