I had the surgery this past Tuesday and it went very well. I am 72 years old and everything described in this video I have experienced.

I recently lost 60lbs and noticed that my trigger finger went away. SO happy about that—it was so annoying.

[MaMa-qhdy]

I got it by carrying heavy 5 gallon buckets of stone with metal wire handle that apparently irritated (swelled) the tendon and caused the problem. It resolved in about 9 months. Prevention -- Use padded gloves to protect your fingers and hands when carrying heavy loads in a bucket having a wire handle.

Had surgery for 2 trigger fingers. It’s been great after the surgery, however now another finger is triggering. Such a great program! ‘Talking with Docs’.

I'm a 51 year old female whos had 3 Trigger Finger surgeries in the past 1.5 years. I don't have diabetes, but I'm full of Arthritis throughout my body. My Trigger Finger symptoms came on quickly and out of nowhere. It burned and hurt like (bleep!) Glad I had the surgeries. It helped drastically!

You guys rock. Love watching and learning from your videos

[santamonicajane]

I had my trigger finger injected and it came back in a few weeks, injected again and has been fine for a year. Very happy.

I have read many books, I listened to many Youtube videos by many of the world's leading gurus and health experts but nothing came close to the hidden herbs by anette ray. I recommend everyone giving it a read.

At 17 (juuuust before I turned 18) I developed trigger finger in my middle and ring fingers on my right hand. The only thing, was that it would only get stuck in the morning. Once I opened my hand fully in the morning, after that I was fine for the rest of the day. We were about to move from South Korea back to the states, so I decided to wait until we got back, and by that point I was 18. I had to be referred to a hand specialist. He said that they could either do the injection or the surgery. I wanted the surgery because a needle that deep in my hand sounded horrific. My step mom says “I ain’t payin for that. You’re getting the injection” So i got the injections, one in each finger, and Im sure the entire hospital heard my screams, maybe even the parking lot. It hurt like HELL. I almost threw up, and was very very upset.

Editing to add: Im now 23, and it hasn’t ever come back

Thank you so much. I have a trigger index finger that I am going to physio for but I have an appointment in a few months with a plastic surgeon. I appreciate all of the info on what to expect.

[katechurcher]

I have had it twice. The injections worked really well and its been about 5 years since having it.

[niclee]

Thank you very much for the explanation

[doubledark]

luv your show! about to get the cortisone injection in a few weeks and this helped me understand a few things. Canadians are so chilled; almost as much as us Aussies :)

[lorettawyer]

I had trigger thumb. I had surgery, and now all is good. I can still play piano, and I'm thankful for my results.

[paulaisaac]

I've had 5 trigger fingers released in the last 6 months. I'd had all the injections possible, taken all the anti inflammatories and succumbed to the need for surgery. While I was there I also had both carpal tunnels released.

[melissaking]

You are almost always correct. But I m have to correct you in that Trigger was Roy Roger's horse. Silver was the Lone Ranger' s horse

[mae]

I have it. Bought a Velcro splint on Amazon, helps a little. Wear it when sleeping

[PatSabins]

Just found your video this morning a couple of hours before I had my trigger finger surgery. Now on to recovery!
My trigger finger came on suddenly about 7 or 8 mos ago. Very painful. Had one cortizone shot which lasted about 2 mos. I was ready to move on to surgery. Done!

[Dr.LeslieJWrixon-jxjl]

Had trigger thumb. Very painful, so I had surgery. Surgery was instantly curing. Easy, brief procedure. Home in 1.5 hours. It was amazing. 100% cure.
