@MisterFallout maybe because you get to see more how the body works since your seeing the true insides instead of a diagram

Much appreciate your excellent video and if you don’t mind I made a copy for an upcoming lecture. I’m a nurse practitioner, a victim of electronic medical records who suffered trigger-finger all last year—it finally required surgery to correct. I present an annual workshop at TxTech in Lubbock on “Common Hand & Foot Injuries.” Stenosing tenosynovitis and carpal tunnel syndrome are just two among 16 subjects relating to the hand & foot, focus on diagnosing and treatment. Thank you. veryWest

I just had it done on both thumbs and didn’t need any pain pills afterwards. It’s been 6 days now and each day they feel better. MUCH better than the pain I had with the danged trigger thumbs!

@drdoom718 Go see a local hand surgeon. Go to handcare.org and follow link to “Find a Hand Surgeon” and put in first 3 digits of zip code if you want some suggestions (if you are in USA). You may be candidate for surgery.

My trigger thumb started 15 months ago. I’ve splinted and rested my thumb, have tried exercises and massages, have taken Aleeve, Motrin, and Advil, iced it, heated it, and taken prescribed NSAIDs. I have had two steroid shots and my trigger thumb is back, the steroids work the best but only for a couple of months. I was told too many shots can rupture the tendon. What’s should I do next?

@drdoom718 : The tendon typically heals in time. Go to handcare.org and follow links to “trigger finger” to get full story and see patient interview.

Dr, does the nodule or inflammation or swelling actually get treated directly? After the sheath is cut does the tendon remain inflamed? I have to get this surgery as the medication prescribed and shots only work for a few weeks. I’m looking forward to it. Thanks in advance.

@Tadixlife We put a tourniquet on the upper arm which controls the bleeding during the surgery. At the end of the surgery we release the tourniquet and you can see the blood go back to the hand (it gets pink again)
