My trigger finger seems getting worse.
It used to only refuse to stretch out when I wake up and would slowly stretch out within the next couple of hours or so. Just yesterday, and since then, this finger seem wanting to fold-in the whole day and it required an effort to stretch it out. I'm starting to find it a chore to do things, everything, due to the state of this finger.
I have heard from people with similar problems and doctors had, almost all, advised them to go under the knife; I have heard that this doesn't guarantee success and intrusive treatment is a big no-no for me.
To alleviate the pain, one could opt for steroid injection but then again, I've been told that it's painful, expensive and seems to have a limit on the number of jabs one can take. Quite a nay for this too.
Really need to know the cause of this and find a remedy aside what was mentioned above. I have been enduring the pain, discomfort and inconvenience for about 10 years or so now, though there was a break of a few years in between.
Could it be that I didn't stretch this finger out often enough that it has turned out to be such? Oh, this trigger finger happen to be my middle finger and I don't suppose I want to have a brush with the law by sticking it out - in the public. *grinz*
