Procedure
Initially, treatment for trigger finger can be aimed at promoting healing through anti-inflammatory pain relievers and immobilization of the metacarpophalangeal joint. If this is not sufficient, local cortisone infiltration can be tried. If these measures are ineffective, surgical treatment may be considered. The aim of surgical treatment is to open up the constriction of the tendon sheath in order to create more space for the enlarged tendon and allow it to glide freely.
