This video is the best and clearest explanation of trigger finger that I have found so far. I have a much better understand of how and why, and what to do. Thank you
I had a very painful trigger finger on my middle finger, I went to a local clinic, the Doctor gave one shot of steroid injection 💉, after a week the pain was still there, I went over to the Clinic again, and the Doctor 😷 gave another steroid injection 💉...i forced my hand to force and push a cabinet 🗄, I felt something cracked inside my hand 🖐️....I went and checked with a specialist Doctor, he said my tendon on the middle finger is cracked due to the frequent steroid injection 💉, it has soften my tendon and he said not safe to take the steroid injection frequently....now I have to do a surgery for the broken tendon and my trigger finger pain as well...i can't bend the end of my middle finger, it's a very disappointed experience for me 😥...pls be careful before taking the steroid injection 💉....better get a specialist opinion...just sharing my experience with the trigger finger effects
I have had several surgical procedures for this problem years ago. Injections did not help me at all. After surgery, the pain was gone. I have a new area acting up on my ring finger left hand. I am trying massage this time. I’d like to avoid surgery although it was not bad at all.
I’m so sorry your tendon cracked . I just had my first injection trigger thumb injection . After your story I will not get them repeatedly . Maybe one more time then surgery I suppose . My doctor mentioned surgery to release that tendons if the injection fails . Thanks again 🙏🏽😊
High risks also include hand scrubbing and cleaning. Including, but not limited to floors, walls, dishes & toilets. Typing and working with constant fingers being used for strength and injuries where the fingers were stretched out too far. I didn't do a study but that's my problem with finger and thumb.
I had trigger finger for around almost 2 years, never saw a doctor, never did anything about it, it came overnight and also disappeared over night all on its own. It was difficult to work and tie my shoe laces while I had it. Now gone and it never came back again. That is my story !
Damn that’s a long time! I have had trigger thumb for almost a month and will see a PA this week. I don’t have much pain associated with it though so I’m surprised it hasn’t healed by now.
I have trigger thumb wearin a splint and exercising thumb came overnight weeks after falling on my hand from jogging fall I think it's improving itself the clicking is very scary at first I thought my thumb be broke very very frightening now ordered plastic thumb splint I agree stopping the bending aids recovery any clicking sets it back inflammation hopefully the tendons not fully torn by the accident n will repair, with rest at the same time fascitis plantar on right foot (arch).elbow burning weak muscle pain rotator cuff injury both shoulders I think I'm worn out and just need to rest 😢
I have a lump at base of thumb it is not painfull i can move my fingers but lump is there do u had lump??? I asked a doc he said it may be trigger fonger
Your information; the detailed pictures, the corresponding narrative, is very helpful. Additionally, making a distinction between patients to suffer from carpal-tunnel your video and accompanying narrative took a great deal of preparation and production value. I so appreciate your efforts towards this video. syndrome, diabetes, hypothyroidism, etc. is very helpful.
I told my doctor I had trigger finger. He examined it and agreed. I treated it myself with daily massages in the painful areas. When I went back I showed my doctor my trigger finger was cured. He smiled and looked at it and said how'd you do that? I cheated because I had worked for a doctor who treated and cured trigger finger repeatedly with massage. No expensive surgery needed.
I had this problem for many years. Whenever I fell asleep, the middle finger of my right arm went bent. Then one day I held my cup of hot tea against the bent finger - and that worked like a miracle, and my problem went away after some days.
This video is absolutely amazing! Fantastic explanations and diagrams. Unfortunately I have developed this in my middle finger and this helped me to get a much better understanding of the condition and it's treatments. Thank you!
@@michaelcoady828 Just think, it's a few seconds of pain for years of relief. I've had mine done since the above comment and It solved the trigger issue. I also had the carpal operation at the same time and it got rid of incessant pins and needles which I used to get in my hand all the time. The operation itself only took 10 minutes.
@@aanis9601 I've had my other hand done since my last comment. It takes about eight months for full recovery but the results have been amazing. No discomfort whatsoever now, first hand now feels completely back to normal. I'll give the other eight months and I'll update but I'm sure will be the same. Totally worth having it done 👍👍
You are a great Professor sir. Oh if I could get you Sir in the beginning era of 1970 when I was a student of Medical Science. What a great art of teaching you have Sir 🙏
my physio thought i had a ganglion cyst and xray didn't show any arthritis. He did wax of my hand, ultrasound, stretches and I wore a thumb brace but it didn't help. but he referred me to surgeon who said it was trigger thumb. it was a painful bump but it wouldn't catch at all. I play guitar a lot with chording - it's not a thumb movement but more a long term gripping motion.
Thank you! Very informative. Unfortunately I happen to have diabetes so I may need surgery for my condition. My finger keeps “catching” I need to get it checked asap.
I had the surgery done on my ring finger and my long fingers in Dec 2022. My hand did not heal properly and my fingers became very gnarled. I could not use them at all. Thankfully, this was my non dominant hand. Later, the doctor said that severe arthritis had caused the joints to become dislocated and I had to have all of the upper knuckle joints replaced. The hand still did not heal properly and my fingers are in very bad shape. He is now recommending that I have joint fusion done to straighten my fingers. Would this be the only option. I don’t like having a useless twisted hand. I would love to send you a picture of my hand. It is unreal that my two trigger fingers caused me to have a deformed hand. I am so disappointed. Why would arthritis cause such a bad outcome to my hand surgery? It has been almost a year. The joint replacement was done in April of 2023.
I had trigger finger over 10 years. It appeared in the morning and disappeared after some activity but re-appeared the next morning. I quit smoking 10 months ago, I find my trigger finger is totally gone. I am not a doctor but I believe there are something related.
6tahun lalu saya mengalami trigger finger di jari manis kedua tangan kiri kanan selama sekitar 1tahun... Alhamdulillah hanya dengan air rebusan daun rempah rempah kedua jari manis saya normal kembali sampai sekarang...
@Iyas kelu ? Don’t understand your comment. Do you dry your towels by hand? I use an electric Dryer. But if I understand you use this process for dying towels I’m sure this could be a problem on a routine basis
You give us a good information... I have a trigger finger for five years but my finger still crooked back and doesn't return as normal..I used physical treatement but there is no any improvement.
Thanks doctor a tons, I developed this some days ago and I was looking answar for this condition, then I saw your video it helped me a lot, I have trigger finger condition on my left hand little finger
I had the surgery and it is common in people with diabetes. It was a quick recovery and an easy surgery. I was awake and they did a blocking shot in my armpit and I didn't feel a think. My thumb and index fingers were both unusable. Now I have full use again and in the six years since.
Great video ‼️ Since I'm not into western medicine and drugs.. I have been using Castor oil. So far, the pain went a couple of days. The stiffness is lasting shorter and shorter in the morning. Read up on Castor oil..
I am on trigger finger #4. These are my experiences. The injection lasts about 6-8 weeks then I was right back where I started. Surgery works well but can reduce range of motion slightly when closing hand into a fist. I did the shot on all of them first. But on #4 I got the shot and scheduled the surgery at the same time. There is a long wait to get surgery scheduled. I don't even notice any adverse side effects after the surgery. The noise it makes when they make the cut is creepy.
I had both at same time. It was extremely painful. First went through a series of steroid injections and finally surgery. What a relief and pain from the surgery wasn't as bad as I thought would be. Didn't have carpal tunnel or diabetes, but I do have Rheumatoid Arthritis which continually causes inflation of the tendons in my hand.
I never even knew this is what it was in my two fingers. And then to know that there's a surgery that could fix this? Or injections? God I just wish this pain would stop but I'm a house cleaner so I don't even know how I would take time off for a surgery let alone recovery. But at this time my hands are in so much pain that I have no choice but to take the time off. It's like I'm stuck because I have to make money to pay my bills. I went on TH-cam to look up how to open up your fingers in the morning cuz I try and I put pressure underneath my fingers where it hurts so I can open them and it takes forever to do and it's so painful to unpop them. Thanks for your comment, I found it helpful. I hope you're doing good still
@@wendyk6875 injection of steroids by trained doctors is possible, it will help to reduce the inflammation at the affected area. Usually some light physio therapy , topical cream and a finger guard to use may also be necessary. The finger guard has a special fit to help keep the finger straight ( extended). But being able to let the affected finger rest will help. This is my personal experience, surgery was not an option because of other underlying conditions. Hope you are well by now.
@@liztan8814 no unfortunately it's only been a few days and my hand doesn't open. I got to go to work and usually takes a few hours to even ease my hand open but thank you for the advice I appreciate it very much
I had this in my RH middle finger when i was in school and thought it was strange but it disappeared over time and this week i started working a physically demanding job in groundworks. My hands were stiff but then i realized that my finger problem was back but would lock pretty hard. Especially in the mornings, it's so stiff. I had surgury on my should twice in the last 2 years but if it was associated with arthritis i would have imagined it would have come on sooner. So hopefully this passes
@@DebbyMorgan-m6bI still had to do some typing, but did extra stretches and exercises afterwards. It took my hands about a year to fully recover; so it can be a slow process but they are fully healed now.
This let's me know what's wrong with my middle finger on my left hand . As we get older our bodies start to go kaput , but that is life and we must deal with it . Thanks for posting this info , it helps ease a lot of questions .
I also have a left middle trigger finger problem. I just went today to set up a day for surgery. I do not want a shot. Because I had surgery on my right hand same problem it was a piece of cake. Never felt pain during or after. I Don't want any foreign unnatural injections in my body. I had a shot in my index knuckle it hurt for hours and hours. I couldn't hear that again. The surgery did not hurt so that's my solution. Just fix the problem and I can move on .... I hope your issues are resolved soon and relief you of your discomfort.
@@20greeneyes20 Thanks for the input , I just finished up with my last follow-up appointment for my eyes . Got some other things to get out of the way , then I will make an appointment with my doctor about my finger . My sister said it might be from holding my phone so much , Iam not so sure about that . Our grandmother on our Dad's side had rheumatoid arthritis in both hands , I thought maybe that was what was wrong , but after watching that clip . It isn't any fun getting old , I dread it every day 😫 . You have a great day , and thanks again 😊 .
I worked on an assembly line for many years putting fruit cup in snack boxes used both hands ; it wasn't until after retired my fingers on both hands would lock up and I would just reset them. They didn't hurt just weird they did that. Started crocheting and playing key board and piano and it stopped happening. I have noticed drinking sodas makes my body hurt more so slacking on that . Yes ty for video.
I tarted feeling better after playing guitar for an hour, that was weird, typically my middle finger would lock on me. After like 45 minutes of practicing guitar I felt an improvement.
I’ve got a locked ring finger and I have surgery next week, and cortisone in my right hand, then in about three months they’ll do surgery on that hand too. My hands have been painful for a very long time, I also have Rheumatoid Arthritis. Now I see what they will be doing for me. The shots I’d been having no longer worked and my ring finger has locked up, had to go to a Jewelry store to have my wedding ring cut off. Looking forward to feeling better soon
TQ for your detailed and precise explanation. Since 10 years ago, I had total of 3 injections (1 on left & 2 on my right hand). Now my left hand is having this problem again for past month. Can I take another injection on this hand ?
I had a trigger finger from overuse crocheting and it has resolved itself after time of rest and a stretching program for fingers hands wrist etc. I had carpal tunnel which also healed through time and / stretching
I have had 2 trigger thumbs,6 trigger finger,4 dupuytren's and 1 carpal tunnel surgeries in the past 5 1/2 years. My advice get yourself to a board certified hand specialist doctor asap at first signs of a problem. Injections hurt like hell and not long term maybe a few months at most. Best to fix it right.
I had trigger thumb happen today and it was so weird. It didn't hurt that bad but I heard it pop and then finally straighten to my pointer when I was grabbing something. It was so weird.
Yes I am pain-free almost a year now . After 1week you will see the difference.This P5P works and am grateful to God I found this video. I was taking 2x daily
I believe I have this , my middle finger hurts in the same area everyday. But it’s normally when I’m not at work using my hands. When I’m off it swells, so I massage it. Cause that’s the only thing that feels good. And then the swelling goes away for a lil bit.
I had fallen in the street in 2019, my left thumb and my third finger was causing problems, I went to the Doctor, she recommended me to a hand Specialist, he gave me Injection twice, but my thumb at the back is still bulging out, but I have no pain as much, I can still crochet , but not as long as I used to, thank God I don't have carpal tunnel syndrome
Is it normal that I've had this problem since I was like 4-11 years old? (Not anymore though) My finger still feels abnormal whenever i flex or stretch, even when it's still (it doesn't get stuck anymore just so you know). But it doesn't hurt or bother me at all, I've had it like this for like 5 years maybe. Yet still I'm curious to see a doctor and have an actual diagnosis of my finger, but I'm also afraid i might need surgery or an injection; normally injections don't bother me, but I've never had one in my hand, so I'm scared that it might be really painful. I could honestly just live with my finger feeling abnormal cause sometimes i even forget about it, but if someone has had that injection, please let me know how it felt so I can consider if i should have it or not.
Don't be afraid dear i had experienced it last month for injection so far so good it little bit pain and later on it felt numbly after 3hours become normal as of now i really feel so good in just one injection
Have Sarcoidosis, and Diabetes. Left thump started to act weird during sleep and now it straightens with a snap. Thanks for letting me know what it is.
I'm a hairdresser. And I cut my middle finger phalanges almost to the tendon. 3 years go by and it's started to trigger. Got injection- great but after 1 year, its snapping again
Thank you very much I was had this Trigger finger in my ring finger for time’s now it was getting stuck in morning thanks this will help me to understand better .
This is really useful info. I've got trigger finger in two fingers on my right hand. I'm having carpal tunnel release surgery next week on the same hand and I'm duabetic!! Whats the outlook like???
Thank you so much Dr, now I know the nature of my problem. I thought it was arthritis but did not understand the locking of the finger. Mine is the left ring finger.
Excellent presentation 👍

I am 16 years old, male and have had trigger finger symptoms for a year now. Btw, I play osu, and that's probably what gave me this.
Mines is my thumb after my carpal tunnel revision surgery 2nd carpal tunnel surgery on my right thumb
I did a Gua Sha treatment on my trigger finger hand and Voilá! No more trigger finger!!
What kind of treatment is that?
Thank you for clear explanation
Thank you for this video it was verý helpful...God bless you Doc!
Very helpful.I have a trigger finger..
Thanks so much for this video, it sure was helpful. Had to save it for later.
I’ve got a locked ring finger and I have surgery next week, and cortisone in my right hand, then in about three months they’ll do surgery on that hand too. My hands have been painful for a very long time, I also have Rheumatoid Arthritis. Now I see what they will be doing for me. The shots I’d been having no longer worked and my ring finger has locked up, had to go to a Jewelry store to have my wedding ring cut off. Looking forward to feeling better soon
Si it possible to do something to avoid surgery?
yes Dr is right my trigger finger at 65 starting after 30 years working with player in my hand and squise. thanks
Thank you very much for this easy to follow overview. I have begun to have problems with my right thumb and this helped me to understand my condition.

TQ for your detailed and precise explanation. Since 10 years ago, I had total of 3 injections (1 on left & 2 on my right hand). Now my left hand is having this problem again for past month. Can I take another injection on this hand ?
thanks a lot Doctor for this excellent video...now i know the condition of my 2 fingers.
Great video. Exactly what i was looking for.
So we can work or not work if we take rest is it better
I had a trigger finger from overuse crocheting and it has resolved itself after time of rest and a stretching program for fingers hands wrist etc. I had carpal tunnel which also healed through time and / stretching
I am happy that the problem has corrected itself.
My ring finger is stiff and feels like numb after I did pull up
I have had 2 trigger thumbs,6 trigger finger,4 dupuytren's and 1 carpal tunnel surgeries in the past 5 1/2 years. My advice get yourself to a board certified hand specialist doctor asap at first signs of a problem. Injections hurt like hell and not long term maybe a few months at most. Best to fix it right.
I had trigger thumb happen today and it was so weird. It didn't hurt that bad but I heard it pop and then finally straighten to my pointer when I was grabbing something. It was so weird.
I suffered from this and 1 supplement called P5P by NOW Company saved me from surgery. After 1 bottle i am pain free by the grace of God.
are you still pain free. My sister in law is having this problem. Asking for her! Thanks for the comment
Yes I am pain-free almost a year now . After 1week you will see the difference.This P5P works and am grateful to God I found this video. I was taking 2x daily
@@WhatsupPattaya Yes I have been pain-free after a bottle of P5P.
Have your Way Lord please share to me where yo buy P5P. I am suffering from this trigger finger. I will be very grateful for your help.
What is P5P? Where will I buy? Please help!
Fixed mine by changing my diet and reducing inflammation. Complete recovery
If you don’t mind me asking what was your diet before hand and what is it now? I’ve been having this problem for some time now
Can you tell us what diet you use to fix it? Thanks
I believe I have this , my middle finger hurts in the same area everyday. But it’s normally when I’m not at work using my hands. When I’m off it swells, so I massage it. Cause that’s the only thing that feels good. And then the swelling goes away for a lil bit.
Thank you TH-cam algorithm. Now I know what I have.
I had fallen in the street in 2019, my left thumb and my third finger was causing problems, I went to the Doctor, she recommended me to a hand Specialist, he gave me Injection twice, but my thumb at the back is still bulging out, but I have no pain as much, I can still crochet , but not as long as I used to, thank God I don't have carpal tunnel syndrome
i just had trigger thumb surgery, after the surgery i noticed that part of my thumb have numbness
Is it normal that I've had this problem since I was like 4-11 years old? (Not anymore though)
My finger still feels abnormal whenever i flex or stretch, even when it's still (it doesn't get stuck anymore just so you know). But it doesn't hurt or bother me at all, I've had it like this for like 5 years maybe.
Yet still I'm curious to see a doctor and have an actual diagnosis of my finger, but I'm also afraid i might need surgery or an injection; normally injections don't bother me, but I've never had one in my hand, so I'm scared that it might be really painful.
I could honestly just live with my finger feeling abnormal cause sometimes i even forget about it, but if someone has had that injection, please let me know how it felt so I can consider if i should have it or not.
Don't be afraid dear i had experienced it last month for injection so far so good it little bit pain and later on it felt numbly after 3hours become normal as of now i really feel so good in just one injection
Have Sarcoidosis, and Diabetes. Left thump started to act weird during sleep and now it straightens with a snap. Thanks for letting me know what it is.
I'm a hairdresser. And I cut my middle finger phalanges almost to the tendon. 3 years go by and it's started to trigger. Got injection- great but after 1 year, its snapping again
So helpful,thanks so much for the knowledge👌😍
