Common questions
- How long does recovery take after trigger finger release?
- Most people use the hand for light tasks within days and return to full activity within a few weeks. Lingering palm soreness typically fades over several weeks to a few months.
- Does trigger finger always need surgery?
- No. Many cases improve with splinting, activity changes, or a steroid injection, injections resolve a large share of cases. Surgery is typically offered when the finger keeps locking despite those treatments.
- Will the triggering come back after surgery?
- Recurrence in a properly released finger is uncommon, though other fingers can develop triggering later. Your surgeon can discuss your individual risk.
