Trigger finger treatment becomes important when a finger starts locking, clicking, or getting stuck during movement. Dr Nikita Shetty evaluates how tendon inflammation is affecting finger flexibility and grip. Some people wake up with finger stiffness that improves later in the day, while others notice sudden locking during simple activities.
The condition develops when the tendon sheath narrows, making smooth finger movement difficult.
