Limited Range of Motion
In addition to stiffness and discomfort, a person with a trigger finger may be unable to achieve their finger's full range of motion without experiencing pain. This occurs more frequently if the condition is left unmanaged.3‘Trigger Finger.’Handcare The Upper Extremity Expert, 2020, www.assh.org/handcare/condition/trigger-finger
A person with a trigger finger may be unable to fully extend their finger. Bending or straightening the finger may cause too much discomfort. This symptom can be addressed through a variety of methods, including stretching exercises, to help maintain the finger's mobility.14‘Trigger Finger: Etiology, Evaluation, and Treatment.’ PubMed Central, 1 June 2008, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2684207,11‘Trigger Finger - Symptoms and Causes.’ Mayo Clinic, 20 Oct. 2020, www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/trigger-finger/symptoms-causes/syc-20365100
