Hand and Upper Extremities FAQs
What is trigger finger?
Trigger finger is caused by a mismatch between the size of the tendons that bend your finger and the sheath around them. It can cause pain, swelling, and stiffness and your finger may “click” or even lock up when you move it.
What activities cause trigger finger?
In most cases, the cause of trigger finger is unknown. However, repetitive gripping or trauma to the hand may contribute. It is also more common with certain conditions like diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common problem that affects the hand and fingers. Bennett Brown, M.D., of the Hand Center at Orlin & Cohen discusses the syndrome's symptoms and treatments.
