Complications From Trigger Finger Surgery
A trigger finger is a condition of the flexor tendons of the finger and the A1 pulley. It results in pain and a clicking or triggering sensation of the finger after the finger is flexed. The finger cannot be extended and is locked in flexion.
Trigger Thumb Symptoms
Trigger thumb, also called stenosing tenosynovitis, is caused by a problem with the flexor tendon, which bends the thumb, and the tunnel it moves through. The tunnel is made up of a series of rings, or pulleys, that keep the tendon close to the bone.
Trigger Finger Surgery Rehabilitation
Trigger finger occurs when your flexor tendon becomes stuck, making it impossible to straighten your finger. Severe cases of trigger surgery may necessitate surgery that cuts the tendon in order to allow finger movement.
