What is Trigger Finger?
Trigger finger is a condition in which the patient’s fingers catch or lock when bent. The patient is unable to relax the finger, and the condition can create pain and
stiffness in the hand. Repeated, forceful movement of the fingers can cause tendon swelling that leads to trigger finger.Trigger finger results from the
inflammation of the tendons inside the finger. Tendons are rigid bands of tissue that connect muscles and bones, and are what assist your muscles in moving and bending your finger position. These tendons should glide easily through the surrounding tissue (sheath) with the help of the
synovium, which functions as a lubricant for the tendon. As the tendon becomes irritated or inflamed, it begins to swell, and has difficulty moving fluidly through the surrounding sheath. The tendon struggles to move naturally and
can eventually snap or pop.
