5 Trigger Finger Rehab Exercises

Today's video covers rehab exercises for trigger finger. Trigger finger or ‘stenosing tenosynovitis’ describes a condition in which inflammation of the sheath that envelops the finger flexor tendons occurs leading to impaired finger movement. In these cases, stiffness is the typical first symptom, which can progress to the point where the finger becomes locked in a bent position (see image) and the other hand is needed to push the finger straight. A painful snap or click will often occur as the finger is straightened. Traumatic injuries, repetitive gripping and arthritis can lead to the development of trigger finger. However, there are other cases where the cause is unknown and can be related to systemic disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes. Trigger finger can often be managed conservatively and should involve a combination of behavior modification (managing finger usage), anti-inflammatory medication, cortisone injections, ice, splinting (if necessary) and tendon gliding exercises. In more severe cases, surgery may be required to restore normal finger function. Shown in this post are several tendon gliding exercises, which can be used in conjunction with the inflammation reduction strategies listed above. Aim for 10 repetitions of each movement 2-3 times per day. *My new book has comprehensive rehab program for the 50 most common injuries and pain issues.
