Trigger finger is a condition affecting tendons that flex the fingers and thumb, typically resulting in a sensation of locking or catching when you bend and straighten your digits. Other symptoms may include pain and stiffness in the fingers and thumb. The condition is also known as stenosing tenosynovitis.
The flexor tendons are long cord-like structures that attach the muscles of the forearm to the bones of the fingers and thumb. When the respective muscles contract, the flexor tendons pull on the bones of the fingers and thumb, causing them to bend.
Each of the flexor tendons to the fingers and thumb passes through a separate tubular structure, called a tendon sheath, as the tendon makes its way across the palm and into the digit. The tendon sheaths are firmly attached to the finger or thumb bones.
Along the tendon sheath, bands of tissue called pulleys hold the flexor tendons closely to the finger bones as the fingers flex and extend. The pulley at the base of each digit where the digit meets the palm is called the A1 pulley. This is the pulley that is most often involved in trigger finger. As long as the other pulleys are functioning, the A1 pulley can be sacrificed, if necessary, to treat a trigger finger.
The tendon sheath attaches to the finger or thumb bones and keeps the flexor tendon in place as it moves to flex the digit. The A1 pulley is near the opening of the tendon sheath where the digit meets the palm.

In a patient with trigger finger, the A1 pulley becomes inflamed and thickened, making it harder for the flexor tendon to glide through it as the finger bends. Over time, the flexor tendon may also become inflamed and develop a small nodule on its surface, further aggravating the condition. When the digit flexes and the thickened nodule passes through the tight pulley, there is a sensation of catching or popping. This is often painful.
The thickened nodule on the flexor tendon pops through the A1 pulley during a deep finger or thumb flexion and strikes the A1 pulley during attempts to extend the digit, making it difficult and often painful to straighten the finger or thumb.
Your doctor will typically be able to diagnose a trigger finger by talking with you about your symptoms and examining your hand. Typically, X-rays or other tests are not absolutely necessary to make the diagnosis.
If your trigger finger does not get better with nonsurgical treatment, you may wish to consider surgery. The decision to have surgery is based typically on how much pain or loss of function you have in your digit. If, however, your finger or thumb is stuck in a flexed or bent position and cannot be straightened with gentle manipulation, your doctor may recommend surgery to prevent permanent stiffness.
The goal of the procedure is to release the A1 pulley, which is the pulley responsible for blocking tendon movement. After release, the flexor tendon can glide more easily through the tendon sheath, making the clicking/catching sensation go away. Typically, trigger finger release is an outpatient procedure, with an injection of local anesthesia to numb the area for surgery. It can be performed with or without sedation (medication that puts you to sleep).
Outcome. The vast majority of patients who have surgery experience significant improvement in function as well as relief from the pain of a trigger finger. Still, if a contracture (abnormal shortening or tightening of tissues) or loss of motion was present before surgery, complete range of motion may not be fully restored.
You can have your fingerprints taken for background checks at the Idaho Falls Police Department. The fingerprinting process is done by our front desk staff and is available during the following hours*:
*There may be times that fingerprinting is unavailable during these windows due to illness or staffing. To ensure that someone is available to take your fingerprints when you come in, we recommend that you call the front desk at (208)612-8616 prior to coming to the station.
Fingerprints are taken on our digital fingerprint scanner, which means no ink and no mess. There is a $10 charge per finger print card that must be paid prior to getting fingerprinted. The Records Department accepts cash, personal check, MasterCard and Visa. Finger prints can be obtained during business hours on a walk-in basis by contacting the Records Department.
In Unix, finger is a program you can use tofind information about computer users. It usually lists the loginname, the full name, and possibly other details about the user you arefingering. These details may include the office location and phonenumber (if known), login time, idle time, time mail was last read, andthe user's plan and project files. The information listed varies, andyou may not be able to get any information from some sites.
In some cases, you may be able to use the finger commandto verify an address or find more information for someone at anotherinstitution about whom you already have some information. Thefinger command is available on most Unixsystems. It differs from the whois command, which you canuse simply to find the email address of someone at anotherinstitution.
If you are trying to get information from a site that does not allowremote fingering (that is, if you must be logged into that site inorder to finger users on that system), you will get results similar tothis:
Note: At Indiana University, the fingercommand may be available on some individual systems, but you can'tfinger someone at the indiana.edu domain.To find IU email addresses, use the IUAddress Book.
When it is time for your splint to come off, your provider will examine how well your finger has healed. Swelling in your finger when you are no longer wearing the splint may be a sign that the tendon has not healed yet. You may need another x-ray of your finger.

Custom-made splinting of the MCP joint, albeit rarely used, is another conservative treatment, used in patients who do not wish to undergo a steroid injection or as an adjuvant to injection. Typically, a custom-made splint is used to hold the MCP joint of the involved finger at 10-15 of flexion, leaving the PIP and distal interphalangeal (DIP) joints free.
Trigger digits that fail to respond to two injections usually require surgical treatment, in the form of surgical release of the A1 pulley, under local anesthesia. During trigger finger release, the proximal edge of the A1 pulley is identified, and a scalpel blade is used to divide the entire A1 pulley in the midline under vision. Dissection of the nodule in the tendon is rarely indicated and may actually cause tendon weakening or rupture. With relief of triggering and friction following the release of the A1 pulley, the nodule usually regresses in size.
