Have you noticed that your fingers seem to catch or lock when they are bent, and when you try to straighten them out, they pop or click like a trigger? This is a common issue known as trigger finger. This condition occurs when the tendons in the finger become inflamed and prevent the fingers from properly functioning.
People who are suffering from trigger finger often experience chronic pain, tenderness, and stiffness in the affected fingers. Many patients experience increased complications with their trigger fingers early in the morning due to the lack of hand movement and stimulation while asleep.
