What is Trigger Finger?

Trigger Finger (Stenosing Tenosynovitis) is a condition where one or more fingers get stuck in a bent position and may snap or lock when trying to straighten. It occurs due to inflammation and thickening of the tendon sheath, restricting smooth movement of the flexor tendons in the finger. This can cause pain, stiffness, and a catching or popping sensation when moving the affected finger.

Our Approach to Trigger Finger

At Dr. Anubhav Gupta’s practice, we provide personalized and effective treatment to relieve pain and restore smooth finger movement.

Accurate Diagnosis

A thorough clinical examination and ultrasound imaging help assess the severity of the condition.

Non-Surgical Management

In mild cases, we use splinting, anti-inflammatory medications, steroid injections, and hand therapy to reduce inflammation and improve movement.

Minimally Invasive Surgery

For persistent or severe cases, we offer Trigger Finger Release Surgery, a quick outpatient procedure to restore normal function.

Post-Treatment Rehabilitation

Hand therapy and exercises help improve flexibility and prevent recurrence.

Recovery and Aftercare

Non-surgical treatment: improvement in a few days to weeks
Surgery: return to light activity within days; full motion within 2–4 weeks
Hand physiotherapy is crucial for maintaining flexibility and preventing stiffness
Recurrence is possible, especially in patients with underlying conditions like diabetes
