Patients who have a trigger finger suffer from disfunction and pain in fingers.<\/p>\n

They have difficulties flexing or extending the finger : it locks and unlocks,
it pops back suddenly, as if releasing a trigger on a gun.<\/p>\n

It requires several weeks to heal until relatively normal functions returned.<\/p>\n
