Trigger Finger Therapy & Treatment Coventry, Warwickshire

Trigger finger occurs when the tendon that opens and closes the finger is limited in movement, causing the finger to catch as the finger is extended.

The Cause

Thickening or a nodule in the flexor tendon of the finger thus making it difficult to extend the finger.

Tendons that control the movements of the fingers and thumb slide through a tunnel of tissue that keeps the tendon in place. The tendon can become irritated as it slides through the tunnel. As it becomes more irritated, the tendon thickens, making its journey through the tunnel more difficult. The tissues that hold the tendon in place do thicken, causing the opening of the tunnel to become smaller so the tendon becomes momentarily stuck at the beginning of the tunnel as the finger is extended. A crack may be felt as the tendon passes through. This causes pain and irritation may be felt while moving the finger

Symptoms of trigger finger can start without any warning. Symptoms may include a small bump, pain in the palm, swelling, and a catching sensation in the finger or thumb joints. Stiffness and catching become worse after inactivity, finger movement will increase with activity. Sometimes, when the tendon breaks free, it feels like dislocate finger joint.
